I can't go nowhere
I can't get no rest
People out of a job
Keep on and on and on

My vacation is over
Didn't have no fun
But I keep on and on in my heart

[Chorus]
Hoping that the spirit might come
And rest some weary soul
So I can keep on and on and on
On and on

Foolish to you this might seem
Fools are why it's required
Caught up in a dream

[Chorus]
Hoping that the spirit might come
And rest some weary soul
So I can keep on and on and on
On and on

Now that was one time
Let me say it again
[Chorus]
Hoping that the spirit might come
Rest some wearied soul (and that soul is mine tonight)
I want to keep on and on and on
On and on

Let's just say it a third time

[Chorus]
Hoping that the spirit might come
Rest some weary soul
So that I can keep on and on and on
On and on

[Chorus]
Spirit might come
Rest some weary soul
On and on and on (I just wanna keep on)
On and on

[Chorus]
Hoping that the spirit might come
And rest some weary soul
So that I can keep on and on and on
On and on
[Chorus]
Hoping that the spirit might come
Rest some weary soul (just let me Jesus keep on)
So that I can keep on and on and on
On and on

Now oh oh, there you go, oh oh

[Chorus]
Spirit might come (spirit oh Lord, ha ha ha)
And rest some weary soul (I just wanna keep on, on and on)
On and on and on
On and onnnnn...

Let me keep on, on and on
On and on and on
I just wanna be able to keep on
Sometimes it gets dark
Sometimes the way gets rough
And I just wanna be able to keep on
If you wanna keep on tonight
Let me see your hands this evening
If you wanna keep on
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

[Chorus]
(Hoping that the) spirit might come (help me Jesus)
And rest some weary soul
So that I can keep on and on and on
On and on
