The Lyrics to The Dick Van Dyke Show theme ("Main Title")

Written by Morey Amsterdam

So you think that you’ve got trouble, well, trouble’s a bubble,

So tell ol’ Mr. Trouble to get lost.

Why not hold your head up high and stop cryin’, start tryin’

And don’t forget to keep your fingers crossed.

When you find the joy of livin’ is lovin’ and givin’

You’ll be there when the winning dice are tossed.

A smile is just a frown that’s turned upside down

So smile and that frown’ll defrost.

And don’t forget to keep your fingers crossed.
