Well, you say, you got the blues
You got holes in both of your shoes, yeah
You're feelin' alone and fused
You got to keep on smilin', just keep on smilin'

Yeah, you're 'bout to go insane
'Cause your woman's playing games
And she says that you're to blame
You got to keep on smilin', just keep on smilin'

Keep on smilin' through the rain, laughin' at the pain
Just blowin' with the changes till the sun comes out again
Keep on smilin' through the rain, laughin' at the pain
Just blowin' with the changes, and singin' this refrain

Singin' in a honky tonk cafe
Nobody's hearin' what you play, yeah
They're too busy drinkin' anyway
You got to keep on smilin', brother keep on smilin'

Say, you found a peace 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 blowin' 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 bum or are you a star?

Smile all through the rain, laugh all through the pain
Go with the changes, till the sun comes out again

Keep on smilin', smilin'
Laughin', say laughin'
Go, blowin', blowin', blowin', yeah
Keep on smilin', smilin'
