Take Home A Smile Edgar Guest Take home a smile; forget the petty cares, The dull, grim grind of all the day's affairs; The day is done, come be yourself awhile: To-night, to those who wait, take home a smile. Take home a smile; don't scatter grief and gloom Where laughter and light hearts should always bloom; What though you've traveled many a dusty mile, Footsore and weary, still take home a smile. Take home a smile -- it is not much to do, But much it means to them who wait for you; You can be brave for such a little while; The day of doubt is done -- take home a smile.
