Supremes, The - Give Out, But Don't Give Up Lyrics

Just keep your head above water
You gotta work yourself to death
And you ask yourself, "Why bother?"
'Cause you never seem to get ahead
But don't feel like a lone ranger
As the same every lying
Things won't get any better
Unless we keep on trying

'Cause it's alright (it's alright, ooh ooh)
To give out (sometimes) sometimes
Don't ever give up (don't you ever give up)
Oh, oh, oh, it's alright (it's alright)
Hey, to give out sometimes
Don't ever give up

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoa, whoa ooh

Sometimes things can happen
That's beyond all your control
One thing after another
You go deeper in the hole (do, do, do, do, do)
Nothing ever comes easy
Giving up won't get you out
Face your problems head on
Keep believing in yourself

'Cause it's alright (it's alright)
Hey, to give out (sometimes) sometimes
Don't you ever give up (don't you ever give up)
Whoa, ooh, it's alright (it's alright)
Oh, to give out sometimes
Don't ever give up

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oooh, oh ooh, it's alright (it's alright)
Hey, to give out (sometimes) sometimes
Don't you ever give up (don't you ever give up)
Oh, oh, oh, it's alright (it's alright)
Hey, to give out sometimes
Don't you ever give up (da da da da, da da da da da)
Mmm, it's alright (it's alright, ooh ooh)
To give out (sometimes) sometimes
Don't ever give up (got to get it together)
No, oh oh, it's alright (it's alright)
Hey, to give out sometimes
Don't ever give up (got to get it together)
No, no, no, it's alright
