Make a Good Fist

J-ust make a good fist, 
E-arly thirty-first of July; 
S-ay no excuses, 
S-ay no 
A-libi. 

M-ake a good fist, 
A-ll of your life; 
E-ach time you're on the road, stay away from strife. 

A-im to make a good fist, 
L-et everything be fine; 
A-llow your hands to do 
M-ore better things in mind. 
A-llow your heart and soul to persevere and persist; 
G-o let your life live well, make a good fist.
