On and On Songtext
von Peter Grant

Down in Jamaica they got lots of pretty women
Steal your money then they break your heart
Lonesome Sue, she′s in love with old Sam
Takes him from the fire into the frying pan

On and on, she just keeps on trying
And she smiles when she feels like crying
On and on, on and on

Poor old Jimmy sits alone in the moonlight
Saw his woman kiss another man
Takes a ladder, steals the stars from the sky
Puts on Sinatra and starts to cry

On and on, he just keeps on trying
And he smiles when he feels like crying
On and on, on and on


When the first time is the last time
It can make you feel so bad
If you know it, then show it
Hold on tight, don't let her say goodnight

Got the sun on my shoulders and my toes in the sand
My woman′s left me for some other man
But I don't care, I'll just dream and stay tan
Toss up my heart and see where it lands

On and on, I just keep trying
And I smile when I feel like dying
On and on, on and on

On and on and on
And I smile when I feel like dying
I just keep on trying
On and on, on and on, on and on
On and on
And I smile when I feel like dying
