Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't criticize, don't complain or condemn
That's the first rule, my friend
Give honest praise, make 'em feel great
Appreciate sincerely, don't be late
[Verse 2]
Arouse that eager want in their heart
Show them how your idea plays a part
Talk from their view, what they desire
Light that inner fire
[Chorus]
How to win friends and influence people
Smile bright, remember their name
Be interested, listen to what they say
Make them feel important every day
Win friends, influence too
Dale Carnegie's wisdom for you!
[Verse 3]
Be a good listener, encourage their talk
Talk in their interests, take that walk
Make others feel key, like they're the star
That's how you go far
[Bridge]
Avoid arguments, admit when you're wrong
Begin friendly, get yeses along
Let them save face, praise every gain
Positive change, without any pain
[Chorus]
How to win friends and influence people
Smile bright, remember their name
Be interested, listen to what they say
Make them feel important every day
Win friends, influence too
These principles ring true!
[Outro]
Follow Dale's way, and you'll see
Better connections, happily
