Pick Yourself Up Songtext
von Mel Tormé

What you gonna hear now come from an old
Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers movies, sort of 1936
This movie was called Swing Time

Hey teacher, teach me something
Nice teacher, teach me something
I′m as awkward as a camel, that's not the worst
My two feet haven′t met yet
But I'll be teacher's pet yet
′Cause I′m gonna learn to dance or burst
And Ginger sings

Well, nothing's impossible, I have found
When your chin is on the ground
You pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again


Oh, don′t lose your confidence, if you slip
Be grateful for the pleasant trip
Pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start again

Work like a soul inspired
'Til the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired
But you′ll be a man, my son

Will you remember the famous men
Had to fall to rise again
Take a deep breath
Dust yourself off
Take a deep breath
Pick yourself up
Start all over again
And Fred sings

I'll get some self-assurance
If your endurance is great
I′ll learn in easy stages
If you're courageous and wait


To feel the strength I want to
I must hang on to your hand
Maybe by the time I'm 50
I′ll get up and do a nifty
Nifty, Mike Renzi at the piano, ladies and gentlemen
Nobody better

That sounds suspiciously like you and Sabaston bond
How I love you and Sabaston bond
You and Sabaston bond
You and Sabaston bond
Let′s do a little more of JS bond

One more time for JS bond

Work like a soul inspired
'Til the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired
But you′ll be a man, my son

Will you remember the famous men
Had to fall to rise again
Take a deep breath
Dust yourself off

Take a deep breath
Pick yourself up
And start all over
Start all over
Start all over

Yeah!

Mike Renzi
