Keep a-going by Frank L. Stanton



Keep a-going by Frank L. Stanton

If you strike a thorn or rose,
Keep a-going'!
if it hails, or if it snows,
Keep a-going'!

'Taint no use to sit an' whine,
When the fish ain't on your line;
Bait your hook an' keep a-trying'
Keep a-going'!

When the weather kills your crop,
Keep a-going'!
When you tumble from the top,
Keep a-going'!

Suppose you're out of every dime,
Being' so ain't any crime;
Tell the world you're feeling' prime-
Keep a-going'!

When it looks like all is up,
Keep a-going'!
Drain the sweetness from the cup,
Keep a-going'!

See the wild birds on the wing,
Hear the bells that sweetly ring,
When you feel like sighing' sing-
Keep a-going'!
