Keep On Working

I was digging in the yard today
When a letter came from Southampton way
Keep on working
Keep on working
I must admit, I was a bit in the red
But if you never have pleasure, then you could be dead
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
But theres one thing
They cant take away
Hear the sea sing
See a smiling face
I think were okay
Though we all could be mad
Well, thats what they say
We just cant all be bad
I got something now to think about
Ill work all day but not to pay it out
Keep on working
Keep on working
Dont care if they say we are a dying race
Id rather be here than any other place
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
And theres another whirl
They cant ever touch
Just need a boy and girl
And it dont cost you much
And if your luck is in
You might have kids at play
To make you laugh and sing
When youre old and grey
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working

I got to admit, I was a bit in the red
But if you never have pleasure, then you might as well be dead
Keep on working

Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, work
