Whenever things seem hard to bareDon't give up. Hang On In There...There ain't no time,No time for sorrowAnd we ain't got time no timeAh time to be sadAnd maybe the worldAin't what it could beBut to understand whyIs to know realityAh don't give in(Hang on in there)Ah I said hang on(Hang on in there...)How many times did youHear your mom and daddy?Say oh child I never had it so goodI wanna say thank you,Thank you for the startCause deep in my soul,I know you did all that you couldI'm just a part of yourDreams this I knowBut I'll do what ever possibleTo make this thing grow.Ah don't give in(Hang on in there)I said hang on(Hang on in there...)Ah now say tomorrowYou woke up a kingNow tell me just how wouldYou fix everything?You walk around complainingAbout how things areBut what have you addedTo this world so farCheck out your mind,And see what the answer isAnd tell me how much did you giveAh don't give in(Hang on in there)I said hang on(Hang on in there...)There are plenty of thingsStill left to live forA child, a friend, and a wifeThey all want to share your lifeAin't that enough to makeYou want hang onHang on, hang on(Hang on in there...)The sign said "America love it or leave"Well has it really come to that?And beside, I don't want to andYou can't make me love...I've got too many friends,That have she'd their blood,I've got too many relativesHere born on this landSo you can't make me leaveI say this is my countyAnd you can't make me leaveYou can't make me loveThe way you treat meAnd you can't make me loveThe way you beat me...Hang on in there, I'm gonna hang onNo matter you do or what you sayIs just wanna let you knowYou can't drive me away...I'm gonna ay hangI'm not gonna throw up my handI'm not gonna throw up my hand...Any you can't drive me from my home landIf the smog from the carsAnd so many live we have lost...Still No matter what I'm gonna hang on...
