Intestinal Fortitude
Don’t give in to adversity
Don’t accept defeat
Put your best foot forward
In any challenge that you meet.
Stick to your convictions
Hold your head up high
Know your limitations
Then you’ll be able to get by.
You can weather any storm
No matter how severe
It takes intestinal fortitude
Let me make that clear.
If at times you feel inept
And things have gone askew
Don’t wallow in self-pity
There’s plenty you can do.
Don’t give in to adversity
Don’t accept defeat
Put your best foot forward
In any challenge that you meet.
