Tried everything I know   Held my hand but now I've got to show   Trying to understand 'bout the things you've learned   But you don't seem to be concerned at all      I'm gonna keep on keepin' on   Ain't gon' leave alone, keep on keepin' on   Ain't gon' leave you alone   Gonna get you to love me      Sometimes it seems like there's just no way at all   You just keep drifting and drifting away   You ain't never home when I call you on the telephone   But I'm gonna fool around, get you back someday      I'm gonna keep on keepin' on   Ain't gon' leave alone, keep on keepin' on   Ain't gon' leave you alone   Gonna get you to love me      I don't care what everybody's gotta say   I'm gonna love you anyway   Even if you don't care any longer   My little bit of love keeps on getting stronger      I'm gonna keep on keepin' on   Ain't gon' leave you alone, keep on keepin' on   Ain't gon' leave you alone   Gonna get you to love me      Lord, I'm gonna keep on keepin' on   Gonna make you mine, love me      Keep on keepin' on   Keep on keepin' on   Keep on keepin' on   ...
