Curtis Mayfield - 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 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 and 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 And 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 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 [Incomprehensible] 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) 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 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)
