And all about troubles that never come true—

And all about troubles that never come true.

The worst of my foes are worries and woes,

And all about troubles that never come true.

“I’ll put them behind me and be a real man,

And I’ll smile and be cheerful, as any one can;

For it’s foolish to fret, and worry, and stew,

And all about troubles that never come true.”

“I likes that song,” said Thomas as Doctor Joe came in. “It kind of makes me feel better.”
