Carry On

Had a girl, but I lost her

She had enough of my stuff and she tossed me

Right on in to that old cold river

So I drank a lot, cried a little

Good for nothing living, stuck in the middle

And too much heartache, way too hard on the liver

Down at the end of every road

Might be diamonds or it might be coal

Truth is you don't ever know

Unless you carry on, carry on, carry on

Call it luck, call it life

Try to take it all in stride

Step left, right, left, right

And you carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on

You got to carry on

Had a job back in Salina

Digging a hole from Kansas to China

Boss man never thought good was good enough

Top brass called it downsizing

I call it out of work and still trying to do

What you do, what you do when the going gets rough

Yeah, down at the end of every road

Might be diamonds or it might be coal

Truth is you don't ever know

So you carry on, carry on, carry on

Call it luck, call it life

Try to take it all in stride

Step left, right, left, right

And you carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on

You got to carry on

Down at the end of every road

Might be diamonds or it might be coal

Truth is you don't ever know

So you carry on, carry on, carry on

Call it luck, call it life

Try to take it all in stride

Step left, right, left, right

And you carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on

Carry on, carry on, carry on

You got to carry on

Carry on

Carry on!
