Lyrics
Chorus:
Get yourself a broom and sweep
Sweep your troubles away, away
Laugh at “Mister Gloom” and keep
Keep a goin’ all day, and say
You’ll make mistakes but you don’t have to stop
That is why pencils have rubbers on top
Get yourself a broom and sweep
Sweep your troubles away
Stop weepin’, start sweepin’
Get yourself a broom and sweep
Sweep your troubles away
Chorus:
Get yourself a broom and sweep
Sweep your troubles away, away
Sing a little tune and work
Work will turn into play, and say
Don’t you get worried if business is slow
The first hundred years are the hardest you know
Get yourself a broom and sweep
Sweep your troubles away
Stop weepin’, start sweepin’
Get yourself a broom and sweep
Sweep your troubles away
