Keep On Trying |
Old man sittin' under a street beneath the concrete |
With his head between his feet |
Looks like he was accepting defeat |
So I walk up to him and I say |
Listen old man they wanna have it all your way |
He looked at me and smiled |
Then right before my eyes turned into a child |
Keep on tryin'. |
Gotta keep on tryin' |
Gotta keep on tryin', till it all works out |
I wandered on down the street, wonderin' who next I’d meet |
When around the corner came this girl |
She said her name was Pearl. |
I said «Hi my name’s Jim» |
We looked at the buildings. |
They were doin' us in |
Keep on tryin'. |
Gotta keep on tryin' |
Gotta keep on tryin', till it all works out |
Now everybody’s walkin' about in them great big shoe |
Smilin' on their faces they look so amused |
I don’t know why they wanna look so conspicuous |
Somebody ought to tell them they look ridiculous |
Chorus: (twice) |
Keep on tryin'. |
Gotta keep on tryin' |
Gotta keep on tryin', till it all works out |
