I dedicate my life to something richer
And all the things that come, ′cause that's no price at all
And I know you′ll be thereAnd I want you to know I care because
Keep your head up, hold your head up
Even though it's a cruel world
Count your blessings, you won't need them
When you′re gone, it′s a cruel world (cruel world)
You can't see it, you can′t see it
Even though it's a cruel world
We′re thrown into this life, no raft, no savior
Masked in self contempt and wrapped in cotton cloth
And it's just like a prayer
The way you showed me you care to be there and because
Keep your head up, hold your head up
Even though it′s a cruel world
Count your blessings, you won't need them
When you're gone, it′s a cruel world (cruel world)
You can′t see it, you can't see it
Even though it′s a cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Keep your head up, hold your head up
Even though it's a cruel world
Count your blessings, you won′t need them
When you're gone, it′s a cruel world (cruel world)
You can't see it, you can't see it
Even though it′s a cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
Cruel world
