A Shine On Your Shoes

From the MGM Picture "The Band Wagon"
Music by Arthur Schwartz; Lyric by Howard Dietz
Performed by Fred Astaire

When you feel as low
as the bottom of a well
and can't get out of the mood
Do something to perk yourself up 
and change your attitude
Give a tug to your tie
Put a crease in your pants
But if you really want to feel fine
give your shoes a shine

When there's a shine on your shoes
there's a melody in your heart
With a singable happy feeling
a wonderful way to start
to face the world every day
with a deedle-dum-dee-dah-dah
A little melody that is making
The worrying world go by

when you walk down the street
with a happy-go-lucky beat
You'll find a lot in what I'm repeating
When there's a shine on your shoes
There's a melody in your heart
What a wonderful way to start the day!

Now there's a shine that you get in the barber shop
There's a shine that you get in the Pullman car
There's a shine that you get in the pool room
There's a shine that you get in the school room

But it doesn't matter where you get it
It'll do a lot of good if you let it
A little bit of polish will abolish what's bothering you

when there's a shine on your shoes
Melody in your heart
Singable happy feeling
Wonderful!
