Wake up and live,
don't mind the rainy patter,
and you will find, it's mind over matter,
dark clouds will break up,
if you will wake up and live.
Wake up and live,
show the stuff you're made of
Just follow through,
what are you afraid of?
You'll try it, won't you?
Say, why don't you wake
up and live?
Come out of your shell,
hey fella, find your place in the sun
Come out of your shell,
say, fella,
just be a go -gettin' son of a gun
Oh, wake up and live
If Lady Luck is yawning up on your toes
A better day is dawning
Don't let up, get up and give
Give yourself, shake a bit
Wake up and live
Wake up and lose,
don't mind the rainy patter
And you will find it's
mind over matter
Dark clouds will break up
if you will wake up and
See that it's high
Wake up and live
Show the stuff you're made of
Just follow through
What are you afraid of?
You'll try it, won't you?
Hey, why don't you wake
up and live?
Wake up and live
Come out of your shell
Hey, fella, find your place
In the sun, come out of your shell
Stay fella, just be a go -gettin'
son -of -a -gun
Whoa, wake up and live
If Lady Luck is yawning up on your toe
I bet her day is dawning
Don't let up, get up
And yeah, you gotta get up
Give yourself a shake -up
Yeah, you gotta wake up
Wake up and live!
