Chorus: 
Little trooper 
Never give up 
Little trooper 
I'm watching you 
Little trooper 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Broken dreams 
You live on heartaches and wine 
When's that sun gonna shine 
It may some day 
Trouble calls 
And pins your back to the wall 
Well then he laughs when you fall
Funny guy 
Still you try to make you stand 
And hold your head high 
Bridges burned, you live and learn 
How to get by 

Chorus 

Hangin' on 
Hangin' out on the block 
Where fallin' angels get lost 
Every day 
Pushin' on 
Start a new 
And hold your head high 
You don't let go 
And so I know 
You'll always get by 

Chorus 

Still you try to make a stand 
And hold your head high 
Bridges burned, you live and learn 
How to get by 

Chorus
