Lyrics

Wake up, put your shoes on Take a breath of the northern air And rub those eyes Genuflect beneath the starry skies Before you climb the mountain First the foothills must appear Step high and light And take up your staff and shining armor (Chin up, chin up) You don't really have a problem (Chin up, chin up) In your hour of despair And smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) Smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) Smile The stars on the horizon Stretch as far as the eyes can see They represent the souls of those like you and me And smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) Smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) And smile (Chin up, chin up) You don't really have a problem (Chin up, chin up) In your hour of despair And smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) Smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) Smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you) Smile when you're down and out (Find something inside you)
