Merle Haggard - Keep On The Sunny Side lyrics

rate me

(A.P. Carter)

There's a dark and a trouble side of life

There's a bright and a sunny side too

Though we meet with the darkness and strife

The sunny side we also have in view.

So keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side

Keep on the sunny side of life

It will help you everyday it will brighten all the way

If you'll keep on the sunny side of life.

Oh the storm in its fury broke today

Crushing hopes that I cherish so dear

Clouds and storms will in time pass away

And the sun again will shine bright and clear.

So keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side

Keep on the sunny side of life

It will help you everyday it will brighten all the way

If you'll keep on the sunny side of life.

--- Instrumental ---

Let us greed with a song of hope each day

Though the moments be cloudy or fair

Let us trust at our Saviour always will keep us

Everyone in his care.

So keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side

Keep on the sunny side of life

It will help you everyday it will brighten all the way

If you'll keep on the sunny side of life...
