Pick Yourself Up

Please teacher, teach me something Nice teacher, teach me something I'm as awkward as a camel, that's not the worst My two feet haven't met yet But I'll be teacher's pet yet 'Cause I'm gonna learn to dance or burst Nothing's impossible I have found For when my chin is on the ground I pick myself up Dust myself off Start all over again Don't lose your confidence if you slip Be grateful for a pleasant trip And pick yourself up Dust yourself off Start all over again Work like a soul inspired Till the battle of the day is won You may be sick and tired But you'll be a man, my son Will you remember the famous men Who had to fall to rise again So take a deep breath Pick yourself up Dust yourself off Start all over again I'll get some self assurance If your endurance is great I'll learn by easy stages If you're courageous and wait To feel the strength I want to I must hang on to your hand Maybe by the time I'm fifty I'll get up and do a nifty Nothing's impossible I have found For when my chin is on the ground I pick myself up Dust myself off Start all over again Don't lose your confidence if you slip Be grateful for a pleasant trip And pick yourself up Dust yourself off Start all over again Work like a soul inspired Till the battle of the day is won You may be sick and tired But you'll be a man, my son Will you remember the famous men Who had to fall to rise again So take a deep breath Pick yourself up Dust yourself off Start all over again
