Keep On Keepin' On.
If the day looks kinder gloomy An' your chances kinder slim ; If the situation's puzzlin' An' the prospects awful grim, An' perplexities keep pressm' Till all hope is nearly gone, Jus' bristle up an' grit your teeth, An' keep on keepin' on. Fumin' never wins a fight An' frettin' never pays ; There ain't no good in broodin' in These pessimistic ways — Smile jus' kinder cheerfully When hope is nearly gone, An' bristle up an' grit your teeth, An' keep on keepin' on. There ain't no use in growhn' An' grumbhn' all the time When music's ringin' everywhere, An' everything's a rhymeJus' keep on smihn' cheerfully, If hope is nearly gone, An' biistle up an' grit your teeth, An' keep on keepin' on. — Judge.
