Give Out, But Don't Give Up Lyrics - The Supremes - The Supremes

(Terry Woodword, Clayton Ivey, Barbara Wyrick) 

Keep your head above water 

Gotta work yourself to death 

So you ask yourself, "Why bother?" 

'Cause you never seem to get ahead 

Don't feel like a lone ranger 

As the same every lying 

Things won't get any better 

Unless we keep on trying 

It's alright (it's alright, ooh ooh) 

To give out sometimes but 

Don't ever give up (don't you ever give up) 

It's alright (it's alright, ooh ooh) 

To give out sometimes 

Don't ever give up

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Whoa, whoa ooh 

Sometimes things can happen 

That's beyond your control 

One thing after another 

You go deeper in the hole (do do do do do) 

Nothing ever comes easy 

Giving up won't get you out 

Face your problems head on 

Keep believing in yourself 

It's alright (it's alright, ooh ooh) 

To give out sometimes but 

Don't ever give up (don't you ever give up) 

It's alright (it's alright, ooh ooh) 

To give out sometimes 

Don't ever give up 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah----
