Though some things in life are hard to bear

Don't let it bring you down

Should the sand of time run out on you

Don't let it bring you down

Don't go down, don't go underground
Things seem strange, but they change
How they change

Up and down your carousel will go'

So don't let it bring you down

Don't go down, don't get out of town
Get to know how it goes (Go-o-oes)
How it goes (Go-o-oes)

When the price you have to pay is high

Don't let it bring you down
Ooh, don't let it bring you down
