Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile.
Don't let your joy and laughter hear the snag
Smile boys, that's the style
What's the use of worrying
It never was worth while
So, pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile.

Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile.
Just pucker up and whistle (Whistle)
(Whistling)
What's the use of worrying
It never was worth while
So, pack up your troubles in your old kit bag
And smile, smile, smile.

The lyric of line 3 is wrong! Newley would never have sung such a yellow-bellied, chicken hearted cop-out of a line - and doesn't! I strongly suspect some americans changed it to avoid the word "fag" - maybe even "lucifer" was too much for some. That is political correctness gone bananas! "Lucifer" - literally "light-carrier" was slang for a match, to light a cigarette, or "fag". Nothing to do with the american meaning "fag", "f*ggot", an abusive term for a gay man. I'm generally a liberal, but taking offence and "snowflakeism" can go too far! Get a grip!! The line IS "While you've a lucifer to light your fag". End of. more »
