Sing, keep your spirits high
Sing, pass your worries by
Sing ‘til the day you die
It’s good for you
Sing while your debts are made
Sing ‘til the bills are paid

When old gloom comes ‘round
You don’t have to frown
It won’t mean a thing, just sing
Brother let your freedom ring
Sing…
Sing...
Sing, and with all your might
It’s good for you
-(Instrumental break: piano, clarinet, trumpet, sax solos to end)-
