It’s Doing Your Job The Best You Can
And Being Just To Your Fellow Man;
It’s Making Money, But Holding Friends
And True To Your Aims And Ends.
It’s Figuring How And Learning Why
And Looking Forward And Thinking High
And Dreaming A Little And Doing Much.
It’s Keeping Always In Closest Touch
With What Is Finest In Word And Deed;
It’s Being Thorough, Yet Making Speed;
It’s Daring Blithely The Field Of Chance
While Making Labor A Brave Romance;
It’s Going Onward Despite Defeat
And Fighting Staunchly, But Keeping Sweet;
It’s Being Clean And It’s Playing Fair;
It’s Laughing Lightly At Dame Despair;
It’s Looking Up At The Stars Above
And Drinking Deeply Of Life And Love.
It’s Struggling On With The Will To Win
But Taking Loss With A Cheerful Grin;
It’s Sharing Sorrow And Work And Mirth
And Making Better This Good Old Earth;
It’s Serving, Striving Through Strain And Stress;
It’s Doing Your Noblest That’s Success!
