This song started as a project for the first Makahike up Snowden - all the hikers in team were raising ££ for the Makaton Charity and we sang the chorus from this song at the Summit back in 2021. Here's the full song for you to sign along to! #Makaton #popsong
Lyrics and Makaton Sign Transcription:
I woke up today with this feeling (AWAKE / TODAY / FEELING)
That better things are coming my way (BETTER / FUTURE)
And if the sunshine has a meaning (SUNSHINE / MEANS)
It’s Telling me not to let things get in my way (NO / STOP / ME)
When the rainy days are dying (RAIN / FINISH)
Gotta keep on, keep on trying (CONTINUE / TRY)
All the bees and birds are flying (ahh ahh ahh) (BEES / BIRDS / FLY)
Never let go, gotta hold on in (STRONG)
Non-stop 'til the break of dawn and (ALWAYS)
Keep on movin' don't stop rockin' (ahh ahh ahh) (CONTINUE / TRY)
Get on up when you're down (GET UP / SAD)
Baby, take a good look around (LOVE / LOOK AROUND)
I know it's not much, but it's okay (NO / GOOD / OK)
Well, Keep on moving anyway (CONTINUE / TRY)
Feels like I should be screaming (FEEL / SHOUT)
Trying to get it through to my friends (EXPLAIN / FRIENDS)
Sometimes it feels that life has no meaning (FEEL / LIFE / NO / WHY [ie REASON])
But I know things will be alright in the end (KNOW / OK)
When the rainy days are dying
Gotta keep on, keep on trying
All the bees and birds are flying (ahh ahh ahh)
Never let go, gotta hold on in
Non-stop 'til the break of dawn and
Keep on movin' don't stop rockin' (ahh ahh ahh)
Get on up when you're down
Baby, take a good look around
I know it's not much, but it's okay
Well Keep on moving anyway
Now If you need me, call me, (NEED / ME / TO TELEPHONE)
No matter where you are (WHERE)
No matter how far, (FAR)
Don't worry, baby (NO / WORRY)
Just call my name, I'll be there in a hurry (SHOUT / NAME / THERE / FAST)
You don't have to worry (NO / WORRY)
'Cause baby, there ain't no mountain high enough (love / NO / MOUNTAIN *modify for size)
Ain't no valley low enough, (NO / VALLEY *modify for size)
Ain't no river wide enough (NO / RIVER *modify for size)
To keep me from getting to you, babe (STOP / TO MEET / YOU)
Baby there ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough,
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe
When the rainy days are dying
Gotta keep on, keep on trying
All the bees and birds are flying (ahh ahh ahh)
Never let go, gotta hold on in
Non-stop 'til the break of dawnin'
Keep on movin' don't stop rockin' (ahh ahh ahh)
Get on up when you're down
Baby, take a good look around
I know it's not much, but it's okay
Well Keep on moving anyway
Get on up when you're down
Baby, take a good look around
I know it's not much, but it's okay
Well Keep on moving anyway
Get on up when you're down
Baby, take a good look around
I know it's not much, but it's okay
Well, Keep on moving anyway
Get on up!
