This Too Shall Pass Lyrics

I can hear mama saying

I can hear mama praying all night

I can hear her sweet, sweet voice

Saying, Whatever is right now will not always be

Even if you're flat on your back

Even if the skies looking black

Just pick yourself up and dust yourself off

This too shall pass

I can hear daddy hurting

I can hear daddy working all night

I can hear his trembling voice

Saying, Whatever is right now will not always be

Even if it's breaking your back

Got to fight the tears with a laugh

Pick yourself up and dust yourself off

Son it ain't gonna last

So there's no need in looking back

Here we go

Here we go

Here we go

Yeah it's gonna pass

So I ain't gonna look back

Get on up and get on out

It ain't gonna stick around no

Ain't gonna get me down no no

It ain't gonna last

This too shall pass

Even if you're flat on your back

This too shall pass

Even if the skies looking black

This too shall pass

Just pick yourself up and dust yourself off
