Keep On Singing Lyrics

KEEP ON SINGING
Helen Reddy

(Keep on singing don't stop
singing)
(You're gonna be a star some day)
(You're gonna make a lot of
people happy)
(When they come to hear you play)

I don't remember
mama
She died when I was born
We lived in a one room shanty
But daddy
tried to make it a home
When I was only six years old
I started singing
in the streets
People would throw me pennies
So I could daddy make ends
meet
They said

CHORUS:

Keep on singing
Don't stop
singing
You're gonna be a star someday
You're gonna make a lot of people
happy
When they come to hear you play
They said keep on singin
Keep
the bells a ringin

Spread the music from town to town
There's not
enough song in this old world
So spread your song around
By the time I
was 10 years old
I had a rock n roll band
Daddy's eyes were growing
dim
But I didn't understand
He said he would be so proud of me
Each
time he'd hear us play
At night he'd pull me to his side
And daddy would
always say

CHORUS

He didn't have much money
But things didn't
seem so bad
I felt just like the queen of the world
When I was with my
dad
Then one rainy April night
Daddy called me to his side
He held me
with his tremblin hands
Right before he
died

CHORUS

CHORUS

CHORUS

FADE
