[Lyric] I Surely Will Be Singing (Tammy Rogers & Thomm Jutz)

[Chorus]
Hard times won't keep me down, I'll lift my spirits up
I'll find another song that's gonna fill my cup
As long as I am living, the music will be ringing
As long as I am breathing, I surely will be singing

[Verse 1]
Like the bird up in the pine, sitting high up on a limb
Whether anybody's listening doesn't mean a thing to him
He's gonna lift his voice just for the joy it brings
There's a song that's in his heart and he's gonna give it wings

[Chorus]
Hard times won't keep me down, I'll lift my spirits up
I'll find another song that's gonna fill my cup
As long as I am living, the music will be ringing
As long as I am breathing, I surely will be singing

[Verse 2]
As long as I remember, grandma always hummed a tune
Hanging clothes out on the line or sweeping up the living room
"Makes the work a little easier," that's what she used to say
"Takes your mind up off of your troubles and it helps you through the day"
[Chorus]
Hard times won't keep me down, I'll lift my spirits up
I'll find another song that's gonna fill my cup
As long as I am living, the music will be ringing
As long as I am breathing, I surely will be singing

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Hard times won't keep me down, I'll lift my spirits up
I'll find another song that's gonna fill my cup
As long as I am living, the music will be ringing
As long as I am breathing, I surely will be singing

[Outro]
As long as I am breathing, I surely will be singing
