Keep On Keeping On lyrics

Everybody gather round and listen to my song

I've only got one

We who are young should now take a stand

Don't run from the burdens of women and men

Continue to give, continue to live for what you know is right

Most of your life can be out of sight

Withdraw from the darkness and look to the light

Where everyone's free

At least that's the way it's supposed to be

[chorus:]

We just keep on keeping on

We just keep on keeping on

Many think that we have blown it

But they too will soon admit

That there's still a lot of love among us

And there's still a lot of faith, warmth and trust

When we keep on keeping on

Before we dismiss, one thing I insist

When you have your young, remember this song

And our world surroundings

Its leaps and bounds, ups and downs, is reality

Teach them to be strong and when they are grown

They can proudly imply that we were an alright guy

For all the wrong now is right

This nation's people are now united as one

[chorus]

Keep on keeping on, ya'll

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on

Keep on, keeping on (Keep on, keeping on)

We got to move on up, ya'll

(We got to move on up)

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on

Some years back I remember, still in my mind so well

My mama made this [?] and I found it never fails

Never worry too long (Worry too long)

About what goes on (About what goes on)

Today it's sorrow (Today it's sorrow)

Look like joy tomorrow (Look like joy tomorrow)

Keep on keeping on (Keep on keeping on)

Keep on, keep on (Keep on, keep on)

[chorus]

Ooh ooh ooh ooh (Ooh ooh ooh ooh)

We're gonna move on up (We’re gonna move on up)

Keep on keeping on (Keep on keeping on)

Move on, move now (Move on, move now)

Keep on keeping on (Keep on keeping on)
