Song lyrics


With a smile and a song
Life is just a bright sunny day.
Your cares fade away
And your heart is young.

With a smile and a song
All the world seems to waken anew.
Rejoicing with you
As the song is sung.

There's no use in grumbling
When the raindrops come tumbling
Remember, you're the one
Who can fill the world with sunshine

When you smile and you sing
Everything is in tune and it's spring.
And life flows along
With a smile and a song.

Notes

The song is included in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Movie Songs.

The hand-drawn animation that makes up the film would be the dominant form of animation at Walt Disney Animation Studios for every film of theirs from 1937 to 2004, with the only two exceptions being The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) and Dinosaur (2000) respectively.

The original design for Snow White was done by the artists behind Betty Boop giving her pouting red lips, long eyelashes, and a glimpse of her ankles causing her to look more like a 'flapper' than a demure princess. Walt Disney threw this out as he wanted Snow White to be wholesome, innocent and clothed in a peasant style dress rather than being sexy. The original 12 inch x 10 inch artwork was kept by one of the animators and held by his family until it was put up for auction in august 2014 when it was expected to make £15,000 but was sold for £2,793.

Walt Disney paid the animators on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs $5 for any gag that made it into the final version of the movie.
