Mamma raised me all on her own
Said, "Boy when you grow up
You're gonna need to be strong"
Look at me now, I'm a working stiff
Guess I found out
That you get what you give
She said
Hal-le-lu-jah
Celebrate the days
If it's all you got
Hal-le-lu-jah
Know who you are
Forget what you're not
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Tried my best to be a man
When you come from nothing
You could always use a hand
Tried to carve out my own path
Odds are against you
It ain't an easy task
Hal-le-lu-jah
Celebrate the days
If it's all you got
Hal-le-lu-jah
Know who you are
Forget what you're not
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Hal-le-lu-jah
Hal-le-lu-jah
Hal-le-lu-jah
Celebrate the days
If it's all you got
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
