Presidents’ Day 2024
Pick Myself Up
Music by Jerome Kern, with lyrics by Dorothy Fields
Nothing’s impossible
I have found
For when my chin is on
the ground
I pick myself up
Dust myself off
Start all over again.
Don’t lose your confidence
if you slip
Be grateful for
a pleasant trip
And pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again.
Work like a soul inspired
Till the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired
But you’ll be a man,
my son!
Will you remember
the famous men
Who had to fall
to rise again?
So take a deep breath
Pick yourself up
Dust yourself off
Start all over again . . .
Nothing’s impossible
I have found
For when my chin is on
the ground
I pick myself up
Dust myself off
Start all over
Again!
