A little wish from me to you
To build a ladder to the sky
Each step upon it filled with joy
To you and all your looking for
Be sweet and keep a smiling face
Don't over wash but keep in pace
Accomplish all you want to do
May any Bother be small and few
Good luck to yea for all year
Meet no trouble
Remember western now and then
But don't laugh hard
Just slightly grin
Be sweet, be good, and be nice
