Keep on pushing
I've got to keep on pushing (mmm-hmm)
I can't stop now
Move up a little higher
Some way, somehow
'Cause I've got my strength
And it don't make sense
Not to keep on pushin'
Hey, Hallelujah, hallelujah -Alliteration
Keep on pushin'
Now maybe some day
I'll reach that higher goal
I know that I can make it
With just a little bit of soul
'Cause I've got my strength
And it don't make sense
Not to keep on pushin
'Now look-a look (look-a look) -Alliteration
A-look-a yonder
What's that I see
A great big stone wall
Stands there ahead of me

But I've got my pride
And I'll move on aside
And keep on pushin'
Hey, Hallelujah, hallelujah -Alliteration
Keep on pushin'
Keep on pushin'
What I say, yeah
Keep on pushin’
Well, that’s alright
What I say, yeah
Keep on pushin’
Well, that’s alright
