Young and old, and in between Six or sixty or sixteen When you think that fate has been unkind Cause you haven't many toys Like some other girls and boys Here's a little rhyme worth remembering sometime
What makes life the sweetest, bestest and completest Not a big doll house, or a Mickey Mouse But the right somebody to love Icecream cake and candy, may be fine and dandy But if you ask me, there not one two three With the right somebody to love
One you really care for And is yours to have and keep One you say a pray'r for In your "Now I lay me down to sleep" Tho your not quite seven, what is most like heaven Its the joy that's found, with your arms around The right somebody to love
What makes life the sweetest, bestest and competest Not what you and I go out and buy But the right somebody to love You may have a bankful, for which to be thankful Nothing you posess brings you happiness Like the right somebody to love
One you really care for And is yours to have and keep One you say a pray'r for In your "Now I lay me down to sleep" All the milk and honey, pockets full of money Cannot take the place, of the sweetest embrace Of the right somebody to love
