Keep On Singin' - Barbara Mandrell Written by：Danny Janssen/Bobby Hart/Billy Sherrill Keep on singing don't stop singing You're gonna be a star someday You're gonna make a lot of people happy When they come to hear you play I don't remember mama She died when I was born We lived in a one room shanty But daddy tried to make it a home When I was only six years old I started singing in the streets And people would throw me penties So I could daddy make ends meet They said keep on singing don't stop singing You're gonna be a star someday You're gonna make a lot of people happy When they come to hear you play They said keep on singing Keep the bells a ringing Spread the music from town to town There's not enough love in this old world So spread your song around By the time that I was ten years old I had a little country band And daddy's eyes were growing dim But I didn't understand He would be so proud of me Each time he'd hear us play At night he'd call me to his side And daddy would always say He'd say keep on singing don't stop singing You're gonna be a star someday You're gonna make a lot of people happy When they come to hear you play They said keep on singing Keep the bells a ringing Spread the music from town to town There's not enough love in this old world So spread your song around He didn't have much money But things never seems so bad I felt just like the queen of the world When I was with my dad And then one rainy april night daddy called me to his side He held me there with his tremblin' hands Right just before he died He'd say keep on singing don't stop singing You're gonna be a star someday You're gonna make a lot of people happy When they come to hear you play They said keep on singing Keep the bells a ringing Spread the music from town to town There's not enough love in this old world So spread your songs around Keep on singing don't stop singing You're gonna be a star someday You're gonna make a lot of people happy When they come to hear you play They said keep on singing Keep the bells a ringing Spread the music from town to town There's not enough love in this old world So spread your song around
