Carry On Lyrics


Carry on
Well I've been beat down to the sound of laughter, but I'll be okay
And you can keep calling me your beautiful disaster, all damn day
See I hold your heart like a part of me baby
It's the only thing that's stopping me from falling down
Yeah, you're the harmony that keeps me sound
Chorus: so now if I stay or if I go
I'll always hold your heart of gold
For if I stray if I'm not strong
You'll be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on
So burn me down and dance around the ashes, I'll be okay
'cause I go up like an airplane when it crashes, all damn day
See I hold your heart like a part of me baby
It's the only thing that's stopping me from falling down
Yeah you're the harmony that keeps me sound

Chorus
Never let me go
I'm no good lonely, without you
So you can keep calling me your beautiful disaster, I'll be okay
Chorus
Be my strength to carry on
Be my strength to carry on

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Jean Knight (born Jean Caliste, January 26, 1943, New Orleans, Louisiana) is an African-American r&b/soul/funk singer, best known for her 1971 Stax Records hit single, "Mr. Big Stuff". After graduating from high school, Caliste began singing at her cousin's bar 'Laura's Place' and caught the attention of many different bands who were willing to accompany her. In 1965, she recorded a demo of a cover version of Jackie Wilson's song "Stop Doggin' Me Around." Her demo attracted record producer Huey Meaux, who signed her to a recording contract at the Jet Star/Tribe record labels.
