High Hopes

Connie Francis

Compositor: James Van Heusen / Sammy Cahn

Next time your found with your chin on the ground
There's a lot to be learn so look around

Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant can't move a rubber tree plant

But he's got high hopes he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie in the sky hopes

So any time your feelin' low stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant

When troubles call and your back's to the wall
There a lots to be learned that wall could fall

Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram scram
He kept buttin' that dam

Cause he had high hopes he had high hopes
He had high apple pie in the sky hopes

So any time your feelin' bad stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam

So keep those high hopes keep those high hopes
Keep that apple pie in the sky hopes

All problems just a toy balloon they'll be bursted soon
They're just bound to go pop
Oops there goes another problem kerplop
Oops there goes another problem kerplop
