Lyrics

I was digging in the yard today
When a letter came from Southampton way
Keep on working, keep on working
I must admit I was a bit in the red
But if you never have pleasure then you could be dead
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
But there's one thing they can't take away
Hear the sea sing or see a smiling face
I think we're okay though we all could be mad
Well, that's what they say, we just can't all be bad
I got something now to think about
I work all day but not to pay it out
Keep on working, keep on working
Don't care if they say we are a dying race
I'd rather be here than any other place
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
And there's another world they can't ever touch
Just need a boy and girl and it don't cost you much
And if your luck is in, you might have kids at play
To make you laugh and sing when you're old and grey
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
Keep on working
I was digging in the yard today
When a letter came from Southampton way
Said keep on working, keep on working
I've got to admit I was a bit in the red
But if you never have pleasure then you might as well be dead
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
And there's another world they can't ever touch
Just need a boy and girl and it don't cost you much
And if your luck is in, you might have kids at play
They'll make you laugh and sing when you're old and grey
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working, keep on working
Keep on working
Work!
