Keep on Pushing - Mavis Staples

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'

hallelujah, hallelujah

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)

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'

[repeat ch

orus

coda [repeat to fade

keep on pushin'
