If up's the word and the world grows greener
Minute by second and most by more
If d**h is the loser and life is the winner
And beggars are rich, but minstrels are poor
Let's touch the sky
With a to and a fro and a hit there, where
And away we go
And even the laziest creature among us
A wisdom no knowledge can k** is astray
Now dull eyes are keen and now keen eyes are keener
For young is the year, for young is the year
Let's touch the sky
With a great and a gay and this deep, deep rush
Through amazing time
It's brains without hearts have set saint against the sinner
But the gain over gladness and joy and no care
Let's do as an Earth which can never do wrong, does
Minute by second and most by more
Let's touch the sky
With a strange and a true and a climbing for
And to far near blue
If beggars are rich and the robin will sing
He's robbing the song, but minstrels are poor
Let's love until no one could quite be
An young as the year is
As living as I'm and as you
Let's touch the sky
With a you and a me and an every who's any
Who's someone, who's who
