Lyrics

Keep On

You know I'm gonna keep on, gonna keep on
Nowhere else to go
I like it with the heat on, so put the heat on
I get there on my own

You know I'm gonna ride it, I won't hide it
I told you all along
But none of that don't matter, let's get it on

'Cause it pays to do your best
Do it better than the rest
And I hate to say I'm wrong
I can see what's going on

And at times it makes me mad
'Cause this thing is all I have
Got to see a way
Oh, how I love it, how I love it

Gonna keep on, gonna keep on
Nowhere else to go
I like it with the heat on, so put the heat on
I get there on my own

You know I'm gonna ride it, I won't hide it
I told you all along
But none of that don't matter, let's get it on

It's a way to pay the bills
But I need to get my thrills
Just until I'm satisfied
But I need to feel alive

You gotta hurt before you heal
Take a dream and make it real
I've been waiting too long
Hey, I'm coming, hey, I'm coming

Like a diamond in the rough
Keep on till I've had enough
Gonna shimmer like a sun
I can warm up everyone

It's coming like a miracle
When you rise you never fall
I've been waiting so long
Hey, it's coming, hey, it's coming

I'm gonna keep on, gonna keep on
Nowhere else to go
I like it with the heat on, so put the heat on
I get there on my own

You know I'm gonna ride it, I won't hide it
I told you all along
But none of that don't matter, let's get it on

Why wait, what you holding on for?
I just go around and around
It isn't gonna take too long

It's late but not too late
It's time for reaching out
Somebody's gonna take me away

You gotta hurt before you heal
Take a dream and make it real
I've been waiting too long
Hey, I'm coming, hey, I'm coming

Gonna keep on, gonna keep on
Nowhere else to go
I like it with the heat on, so put the heat on
I get there on my own

You know I'm gonna ride it, I won't hide it
I told you all along
But none of that don't matter, let's get it on

Keep on
Keep on
Keep on
...
