Lyrics

Her father died when she was nine/her mom's never home/she's working all the time/and when she's home all they do is fight/teenage rights of passage have her crying through the night

But she remembers her dad's last words - he said...

You may not always succeed/ but promise me you'll always do your best/you can't please everyone so cherish your self-respect/hold your head up high - set your goals/find friends that will lift your soul/slowly, bravely choose your path - and don't forget to laugh

Her mom complains she wears too makeup/your top is too revealing - your skirt is too short/your heels are too high - your jeans are too torn/get your grades up or you'll be out the door

And she remembers her dad's last words/you may not always succeed but promise me you'll always do your best/you can't please everyone so cherish your self-respect/hold your head up high - set your goals - find friends that will lift your soul/slowly, bravely choose your path - and don't forget to laugh

Instrumental

And she remembers her dad's last words/hold your head up high - set your goals/find friends that will lift your soul/slowly, bravely choose your path/and don't forget

Hold your head up high/my sweet angel child/hold your head up high/I wish you so much love/may all your dreams shine bright/promise me you won't forget to laugh/don't forget to laugh
