I've always argued that success
Should not be measured by one's gold,
The size of salaries or of fees,
The goods that one has bought or sold.
I want to know how much of time
A man has spent along the way
In doing deeds that cheer sad hearts
When hope seems gone and skies are grey.
I think one way to win success
Is helping someone in distress.

And puts his best licks in the fight
Who hasn't the time to whimper or sob,
Who believes that the future is bright;
The fellow who's giving the best that he can,
Tho! the skies may be cloudy or clear,
Who turns to his task with a well defined plan
He's the lad I am ready to cheer.

He's the fellow I'm backing to win.
