Vigor, Vitality, Vim and Punch-- That's /Pep!/ The courage to act on a sudden hunch-- That's /Pep!/ The nerve to tackle the hardest thing With feet that climb and hands that cling, And a heart that never forgets to sing-- That's /Pep!/ Sand and grit on a concrete base-- That's /Pep!/ Friendly smile on an honest face-- That's /Pep!/ The spirit that helps when another's down, That knows how to scatter the darkest frown, That loves its neighbor and loves its town-- That's /Pep!/ To say "I will" for you know you can-- That's /Pep!/ To look for the best in every man-- That's /Pep!/ To meet each thundering knockout blow And come back with a laugh, for well you know You'll get the best of the whole darn show-- That's /Pep!/ -- Grace G.
