 <br />
 Gather `round me, everybody<br />
 Gather `round me while I`m preachin`<br />
 Feel a sermon comin` on me<br />
 The topic will be sin and that`s what I`m ag`in`<br />
 If you wanna hear my story<br />
 The settle back and just sit tight<br />
 While I start reviewin`<br />
 The attitude of doin` right<br />
 <br />
 You`ve got to accentuate the positive<br />
 Eliminate the negative<br />
 And latch on to the affirmative<br />
 Don`t mess with Mister In-Between<br />
 <br />
 You`ve got to spread joy up to the maximum<br />
 Bring gloom down to the minimum<br />
 Have faith or pandemonium`s<br />
 Liable to walk upon the scene<br />
 <br />
 To illustrate my last remark<br />
 Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark<br />
 What did they do just when everything looked so dark?<br />
 <br />
 (Man, they said `We`d better accentuate the positive`)<br />
 (`Eliminate the negative`)<br />
 (`And latch on to the affirmative`)<br />
 Don`t mess with Mister In-Between (No!)<br />
 Don`t mess with Mister In-Between<br />
 <br />
 (Ya got to spread joy up to the maximum)<br />
 <br />
 (Bring gloom down to the minimum)<br />
 <br />
 (Have faith or pandemonium`s)<br />
 (Liable to walk upon the scene)<br />
 <br />
 You got to ac (yes, yes) -cent-tchu-ate the positive<br />
 Eliminate (yes, yes) the negative<br />
 And latch (yes, yes) on to the affirmative<br />
 Don`t mess with Mister In-Between<br />
 No, don`t mess with Mister In-Between<br />

Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive

- Artist: Johnny Mercer as sung on `Remember the 40`s-Music Of the War Years
Vol. IV, 1941-45` CEMA Special Markets (Capitol-EMI) CDL-57367
- peak Billboard position # 1 in 1945

Gather `round me, everybody
Gather `round me while I`m preachin`
Feel a sermon comin` on me
The topic will be sin and that`s what I`m ag`in`
If you wanna hear my story
The settle back and just sit tight
While I start reviewin`
The attitude of doin` right

You`ve got to accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don`t mess with Mister In-Between

You`ve got to spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium`s
Liable to walk upon the scene

To illustrate my last remark
Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
What did they do just when everything looked so dark?

(Man, they said `We`d better accentuate the positive`)
(`Eliminate the negative`)
(`And latch on to the affirmative`)
Don`t mess with Mister In-Between (No!)
Don`t mess with Mister In-Between

(Ya got to spread joy up to the maximum)

(Bring gloom down to the minimum)

(Have faith or pandemonium`s)
(Liable to walk upon the scene)

You got to ac (yes, yes) -cent-tchu-ate the positive
Eliminate (yes, yes) the negative
And latch (yes, yes) on to the affirmative
Don`t mess with Mister In-Between
No, don`t mess with Mister In-Between
