When things go wrong as they some times will When the road you're trudging seems all uphill When the funds are low and the debts are high And you want to smile but you have to sigh When care is pressing you down a bit Rest if you must but dont quit
Life is queer with its twists and turns As everyone of us sometimes learns And many a fellow turns about When he might have won had he stuck out Dont give up though the pace seems slow You may succeed with another blow
Often the goal is nearer than It seems to a faint and faltering man Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victors cup And he learned to late when the night came down Oh how close he was to the golden crown
Success is failure turned inside out The silver tint of the clouds of doubt And you never can tell how close you are It may be near when it seems afar Hence stick to the fight when your hardest hit
For its when things seem worst that you must never Q U I T.
