When things go wrong As they sometimes will When the road your trudging Seems all uphill When the funds are low And the debts are high When you want to smile But you have to sigh When care is pressing you down a bit Rest if you must but don't you quit Life is queer With it's twists and turns As everyone of us Must at sometime learn Often the struggler has given up When he might of captured the victor's cup
And he learned to late as night slipped down How close he was to the golden crown Success Is failure inside out The silver tint to The clouds of doubt And you can never tell how close you are It may be near when it seems afar So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit It's when things seem worst that you must not quit Don't quit Don't quit Don't quit Don't quit, don't quit
