Where There’s A With There’s A Way

Where There’s a With There’s a Way

This life is a difficult riddle
For many people we see
With faces as long as a fiddle
That ought to look shining with glee
I am sure in this world there are plenty
Of good things enough for us all,
And yet there’s not one out of twenty
But thinks that his share is too small

Chorus-
Then what is the use of repining?
For where there’s a will there’s a way
And tomorrow the sun may be shining,
Although it is cloudy today

Did you ever hear tell of the spider
That tried up the wall hard to climb?
If not just take that as a gulder-
You’ll find it will serve you in time:
Nine times it tried hard in the mounting
And every time had a fall
At last it tried hard without counting
And, of course, reached the top of the wall
Chorus

Some grumble because they’re not married,
And cannot procure a good wife
Whilst others they wish they had tarried
And long for a bachelor’s life
To me it is very bewilderin’: So
me grumble, it must be in fun
Because they have too many children,
And others because they have none
Chorus

Do you think that by sitting and sighing
You’ll ever obtain all you want?
‘Tis cowards alone that are crying
And foolishly raying I can’t!”
It’s only by plodding and striving
And laboring up the steen hill
Of life that you’ll ever be thriving
Which you’ll do if you’ve only the will
