Carry It On

          C
There's a man by my side walking.
          G               C
There's a voice inside me talking.

There's a word that needs a-saying:
         G            C
Carry it on, carry it on,
         G            F - C
Carry it on, carry it on.

They will tell their lying stories,
Send their dogs to bite our bodies.
They will lock us up in prison.
Carry it on, carry it on,
Carry it on, carry it on.

All their lies soon be forgotten,
All their dogs are gonna lie there rotting,
All their prison walls will crumble,
Carry it on, carry it on,
Carry it on, carry it on.

When you can't go on any longer,
Take the hand of your sister and brother.
Every victory's gonna bring another,
Carry it on, carry it on,
Carry it on, carry it on.
Carry it on, carry it on,
Carry it on, carry it on.
Carry it on, carry it on,
Carry it on, carry it on.

(Words and music by Gil Turner, 1962)
