I've seen some good times
And I've seen some bad times
And some times in between that I'd rather forget
But I'll keep on moving
And I'll keep on singing
Though the world keeps on rolling
There's life in this old dog yet
I'll sing while I still have a voice
I'll sing while I still have a choice
I'll sing in the hopes of a bright new day
I'll sing to help keep the shadows away
I'll make the rafters ring
When I sing, sing, sing
Sometimes I've felt worthless
Sometimes I've felt helpless
Just flotsam adrift in life's turbulent sea
Sometimes I was weaving
Sometimes I was drowning
Treading water and waiting for someone to save me
I'll sing while I still have a voice
I'll sing while I still have a choice
I'll sing in the hopes of a bright new day
I'll sing to help keep the shadows away
I'll make the rafters ring
When I sing, sing, sing
When the darkness is gathering
And the light it is fading
When hope seems as fragile as a butterfly's wing
The past is a closed curtain
The present is uncertain
The future's still for the taking
So stand up and sing
Sing while we still have a voice
Sing while we still have a choice
Sing in the hopes of a bright new day
Sing to help keep the shadows away
Make the rafters ring
And sing, sing, sing
So sing while we still have a voice
Sing while we still have a choice
Sing in the hopes of a bright new day
Sing to help keep the shadows away
Make the rafters ring
And sing, sing, sing
Make the rafters ring
And sing, sing, sing
