| Lyrics: | Keep on singing don't stop singing, You're gonna be a star some day
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, Started singing in the streets
People would throw me pennies, So I could help daddy
make ends meet
He said Keep on singing don't stop singing
You're gonna be a star some
day
You're gonna make a lot of people happy
When they come to hear you play
He said
keep on singin, Keep the bells a ringin
Spread the music from town to town
There's not
another love in this old world
So spread your songs around
By the time that I was 10
years old, I had a little rock and roll band
Daddy's eyes were growing dim, But I didn't
understand
He would be so proud of me, Each time he heard us play
At night he'd call me to
his side, And daddy would always say
He said keep on singing don't stop singing
You're
gonna be a star some day
You're gonna make a lot of people happy
When they come to hear you
play
He said keep the bells a-rinin'
Spread the music from town to town
There's not
another love in this old world
So spread your songs around
We didn't have much money,
But things didn't seem so bad
I felt just like the queen of the world, When I was with my
dad
Then one rainy April night, Daddy called me to his side
Held me with his tremblin hands,
And right before he died
He said keep on singing don't stop singing, You're gonna be a star
some day
You're gonna make a lot of people happy, When they come to hear you play |
