Put on a Smile

[Intro: Bootsy Collins & Bruno Mars]

Oh, lookie here, fellas

Take it from your Uncle Bootsy

Ain't no shame beggin' in the rain

Tell her how you really feel

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

[Verse 1: Anderson .Paak]

I could pretend when I'm out with my friends

I ain't thinkin' about you

I could pretend like I ain't in my feelings

But that ain't true, nah (Nah)

When I called you out your name

That was my ego, my pride and pain

I should be a movie star

The way I play the part like everything's okay

[Pre-Chorus: Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak]

Oh, now I try to be the life of the party

All night, buyin' shots for everybody

But it's all just an act (Yeah), and I can't have you back (Yeah)

Without you, I'll be goin' crazy

[Chorus: Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak & Both]

Tryna put on a smile (Put on a smile)

Tryna fight these tears from cryin'

But Lord knows I'm dyin', dyin'

Tryna put on a smile, smile (Put on a smile)

Ooh, out here smilin' like a fool

When the only thing worth smilin' for

Baby girl, the only thing worth smilin' for was

You, you, you

You, you, you, you, you

You

[Verse 2: Anderson .Paak]

If I could turn back the hands on my Rollie, you know I would

I would've spent all my time makin' sure that my baby good

I'm tryin' hard to hide the shame

I know I'm playin' a dangerous game

But since you've been gone, I ain't been the same

There's only so much a man can fake

[Pre-Chorus: Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak]

Oh, now I try to be the life of the party

All night, buyin' shots for everybody

But it's all just an act (Yeah) 'cause I can't have you back (Yeah)

Without you, I've been goin' crazy

[Chorus: Bruno Mars & Both]

Tryna put on a smile (Put on a smile)

Tryna fight these tears from cryin'

But Lord knows I'm dyin', dyin'

Tryna put on a smile, smile (Put on a smile)

Baby, out here smilin' like a fool

When the only thing worth smilin' for

Baby, you're the only thing worth smilin' for

When the only thing worth smilin' for

Baby girl, the only thing worth smilin' for was

[Bridge: Bruno Mars]

You, you, you

[Chorus: Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak & Both]

I'm tryna put on a smile (Put on a smile)

Oh-oh, tryna fight these tears from cryin'

But Lord knows I'm dyin' (Put on a smile)

I'm smilin' like a fool

When the only thing worth smilin' for

Baby, you're the only thing worth smilin' for

When the only thing worth smilin' for

Oh, the only thing worth smilin' for was

You, you, you

You, you, you, you, you
