Sometimes life is a long hard road and a difficult place to be Sometimes love is a heavy load and tortures you constantly Sometimes good is a neighborhood and sometimes a lonely place Sometimes times is as hard as these rhymes And it's hard to keep a smile on your face If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you You go to the bank and there's no one to thank because they've pissed away your IRA Then you go online, and see your savings dying as you look at your 401k They say don't pull out, without a doubt, you'll make it all up in the end With your glass half-gone, and no sign of dawn, remember these words, my friends If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you Deep down in the mine, but still on the front line, with a mind full of doubt The roof falls on your head, the canary is long dead, and there is no way out Outside the straw boss stands, without rescue plans, the union was laid-off The damage has been done, we've all got black lung, there's no getting rid of this cough If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you The girl you adore has just shown you the door, and where are you going to go In bed she's a lady, in church she's a whore, and the rest of the time you don't know Not working -- networking -- no coffee is perking, you're vanishing without a trace Your suburban dreams fall apart at the seams, as life throws a pie in your face If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you When the gauge says E and you've got somewhere to be, you gotta go to the pumps Reaching for your pocket, taking out your wallet, only puts you down in the dumps The newsman says, "there's nothing to dread, we now have Hope' and 'yes we can A billion bucks to build American trucks isn't part of this bailout plan If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you Good manners, alas, are a thing of the past And she frowned when I begged her pardon I didn't mean to be bold but she came across cold When I asked if her name was Carmen I said, I just found your purse And to make matters worse read the name on your cat's prescription When she yelled, "Go to hell!" She probably couldn't tell that what heard her say was Keep Going If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you You're due for a raise and you think you'll hear praise But the boss just says We've gotta talk Instead of bein paid off You find you're being laid off your heart starts to sink like a rock You're selling on e-bay to give yourself leeway While trying to watch what you spend Trying not to sound bitter each time That you twitter 'bout advice from your Face Book friends If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you The prairie is red and you feel like you're dead waking up at the break of dawn You got cold chills, a bottle of pills, and you feel like you can't go on Weeks of sleepless nights and restless days have stolen your will and your fight You need a sign, but all that you find is that there's really no end in sight If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you Yesterday is so far away and tomorrow might be all wrong Yesteryear was an ice cold beer, a tear and an invisible song A yester-life and different wife, a crime and a point of view If it all goes bad and you lose everything you had, here's what you have to do If you're going through hell, keep going If your boat is sinking, keep rowing If your balloon is leaking, keep blowing Keep doing the things you do If your heart is breaking, keep caring If your hands are shaking, keep daring If you fall flat broke, keep sharing It'll all come back to you It'll all come back to you It'll all come back To you
