Smile by Uncle Kracker

Smile by Uncle Kracker was in my head this morning...

It's kind of amazing to me that I can hear a song for months--maybe even years--without having a clue what the words are or who sings it. Has radio changed or am I not paying attention? Smile is one of those songs. Uncle Kracker? Are you kidding me? And all the words I remembered when I woke up this morning were "You make me smile like..." a fool? A what? Anyway, I hear this song all the time but never gave it 2 seconds of thought.

I remember in about 1964 KDWB had a contest where you could choose a whole hour of songs that they'd play. I spent days making my playlist but never sent it in. I knew every word to every one of those songs, and certainly knew who sang them (and probably tons of personal info about each of the singers). Of course back then you had to work pretty hard (i.e. go to a store, buy a magazine and read it) to find out anything about a celebrity!

Uncle Kracker - Smile lyrics

Send "Smile" Ringtone to your Cell

You´re better then the best
I´m lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow that´s right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me
Lets me know that it´s ok
Yeah it´s ok
And the moments when my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Even when you´re gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking through the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile

Don´t know how I lived without you
'Cuz every time that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall outta bed
Sing like bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile
Oh, you make me smile
Oh, you make me smile
