Keep On Keepin' On

Ooooooh, yeaaah You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly Poor kid's pouring cold water in his cereal Second-hand clothes, surviving his physicals Praying to God tonight thing's will get better soon I remember when I was in your position Tried to tell people my story but no one would really listen I know times are hard right now Happiness is hard to find right now You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly Looking out the window to the roads of frozen concrete Dreaming of a day when you'll be standing on your own feet Hard to find a good, it's like it seems so bad, seems so sad Seeing other kids with their Tims on, fresh with Air Ones, wish I had one Longing for a day when you'll get your chance to shine Don't worry, there'll come a time You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly Young girl sitting on the steps of a duplex Why did God choose to make my life so complex? Breathing to the beat of a slow sad drum Trouble is her only source of fun I can almost guarantee you, it will get better tomorrow You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly You've got to keep on keeping on You've got to keep your head up high You got to work with what you've got And someday you will fly
