Can't
Give Up
Wanderin', weak, and weary; half-asleep,
outlook is dreary
Should I take a tip from Timothy Leary
Should I get high? Should I drop out?
Should I get down-------?
Must be more to life than this; Can't
Give Up, must persist
God gives us life, He'll be pissed,
if I don't do it honest
You get the jist,
God I keep seeking
Can't Give Up, Can't Give Up,
Can't Give Up, Can't Give Up
Gotta keep seeking
Okay, let's say I succeed, do I get led
astray by greed? 'Cause you know I'd just as soon stay poor
Than to lose it all, and end up a beggar
at your door
At least this way I know I can adapt;
all those years of puttin' up with your crap
You taught me well, you taught me hard,
gotta clean up your own backyard
I Can't Give Up so easily, and have you
all just laugh at me
That's not the way I wanna go, we all
need respect , you know
I Can't Give Up, Can't Give Up,
Can't Give Up, Can't Give Up,
Gotta keep seeking |
I know you try to keep me down. Persistent
evil, mankind's crown
Why can't we all just get along. It
takes a strong man to admit when he's wrong
I Can't Give Up so easily, and have you
all just laugh at me
That's not the way I wanna go, we all
need respect , you know
Can't Give Up, Can't Give Up, Can't
Give Up, Can't Give Up
Gotta keep seeking
And now the time is growing near when
eternity will bend an ear
Perhaps we'll learn someday that peace
is not so easily conceived
By men who, all they know is war. What
is all the fighting for?
A piece of ground to be buried in. Death
is truly the wage of sin
Can't Give Up, Can't Give Up, Can't Give
Up, Can't Give Up Gotta keep seeking

The right way, now
