Don't Quit
Don't Quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit—
Rest if you must, but don’t quit.
Life is queer with its twist and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a person turns about
When they might have won had they stuck it out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow—
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the struggle has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out—
So stick the fight when you’re hardest hit, --
It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit.
