Sometimes the road of life is a very dusty trail
Sometimes things work out fine, sometimes not so well
Sometimes you get knocked off your feet and you think that you can't win
You just pick yourself up and brush yourself off and get back on the road again

Chorus:
You've got to march forward, don't look behind
You've got to see all the beauty life can hold
You've got to march forward live each day as it comes
I'm riding piggy back on a rainbow just looking for the pot of gold

Sometimes along the trail you just can't keep the pace
Sometimes it seems you walk forever and you don't get anyplace
When all your troubles weigh heavy on your mind
Just put one foot in front of the other and leave your troubles behind

Chorus:
You've got to march forward, don't look behind
You've got to see all the beauty life can hold
You've got to march forward live each day as it comes
I'm riding piggy back on a rainbow just looking for the pot of gold

Sometimes along the trail the hills get in your way
And the troubles that you face get rougher every day
Just grit your teeth and struggle on and I think that you will find
That every hill that you cross is one less you've got to climb

Chorus:
You've got to march forward, don't look behind
You've got to see all the beauty life can hold
You've got to march forward live each day as it comes
I'm riding piggy back on a rainbow just looking for the pot of gold
