Pick Yourself Up

Please teacher, teach me something,\nNice teacher, teach me something.\nI’m as awkward as a camel, that’s not the worst,\nMy two feet haven’t met yet,\nBut I’ll be teacher’s pet yet,\n'Cause I’m gonna learn to dance or burst.\nNothing’s impossible I have found,\nFor when my chin is on the ground,\nI pick myself up,\nDust myself off,\nStart All over again.\nDon’t lose your confidence if you slip,\nBe grateful for a pleasant trip,\nAnd pick yourself up,\nDust yourself off,\nStart all over again.\nWork like a soul inspired,\nTill the battle of the day is won.\nYou may be sick and tired,\nBut you’ll be a man, my son!\nWill you remember the famous men,\nWho had to fall to rise again?\nSo take a deep breath,\nPick yourself up,\nDust yourself off,\nStart all over again.\nI’ll get some self assurance\nIf your endurance is great.\nI’ll learn by easy stages\nIf you’re courageous and wait.\nTo feel the strength I want to,\nI must hang on to your hand,\nMaybe by the time I’m fifty\nI’ll get up and do a nifty.\nNothing’s impossible I have found,\nFor when my chin is on the ground,\nI pick myself up,\nDust myself off,\nStart all over again.\nDon’t lose your confidence if you slip,\nBe grateful for a pleasant trip,\nAnd pick yourself up,\nDust yourself off,\nStart all over again.\nWork like a soul inspired,\nTill the battle of the day is won.\nYou may be sick and tired,\nBut you’ll be a man, my son!\nWill you remember the famous men,\nWho had to fall to rise again?\nSo take a deep breath,\nPick yourself up,\nDust yourself off,\nStart all over again.
