Well you say you got the blues
You got holes in both of your shoes, yeah
You're feeling alone and confused
You got to keep on smilin', just keep on smilin'
Yeah, you're, you're 'bout to go insane
'Cause your woman's playing games
And she says that you're to blame
You try to keep on smilin', just keep on smilin'
Keep on smilin' through the rain
Laughin' at the pain
Just flowin' with the changes
Till the sun comes out again
Keep on smilin' through the rain
Laughin' at the pain
Just flowin' with the changes
And singin' this refrain
Singing in a honky tonk cafe
Nobody's hearin' what you play, yeah
They're too busy drinkin' anyway
You gotta keep on smilin', brother, keep on smilin'
Say you, you found a piece of land
Gonna change from city boy to country man, yeah
Try to build your life with your hands
And just keep on smilin', keep on smilin'
Keep on smilin' through the rain
Laughin' at the pain
Just flowin' with the changes
Keep on singin' this refrain
You're just hangin out in a local bar
And you're wonderin' who the hell you are
Are you a farmer? Are you a star?
Smile on through the rain
Laugh all through the pain
Flow on with the changes
Till the sun comes out again
Keep on smilin', smilin', smilin', smilin'
Laughin', laughin', said laughin', laughin'
Keep on flowin', flowin', flowin', flowin', yeah
Smilin', smilin', smilin', smilin'
