Roll out of bed and stretch your limbs
Lucky you had legs to stand on today
Shake your body like a tree in the wind
Plan the events of dealing and wheeling
Cheer Up………You are alive
Dig hard with a shovel in the bare earth
Luck is on your side o, gold dust shows
Dance and shout for all to come and see
Push away the sorrow and jubilate loud
Cheer Up…….You have strength
With gloves over his hands and face mask
Luck or muck but there to wash up cadavers
Remorse in the start now an easy way of life
The end result has no dead faces on the notes
Cheer Up……….You must struggle
The heat is raging like being in the furnance
Lucky and not hungry food is all round you
The sweat runs down to the hidden spots
Your elbow mops up the salty beads of labor
Cheer Up……….You have a job
The Doctor said you will not be alive today
The teacher made you feel like the floor rag
The other students called your ugly bad names
The story is not the same today you made it
Cheer Up……….You are the head
