Lyrics:

Trade winds keep on blowing
My life keeps on going
Jah love keeps on flowing

Just yesterday I was hoping for tomorrow
And I trust and pray it would bring a brighter future
My life has been filled with ups and downs
Sometimes I never knew which way to turn

When the going gets rough, the tough gets going
'Cause I never give up my pride
Even though I'm broken up inside
I never give up my pride
Even though they try to push me aside
I never give up my pride

Don't you remember when?
Didn't depend on hopes and dreams
I had to push on through trying to find the ways and means
My life has been filled with twists and turns
Sometimes I never knew which way to turn

When the going gets rough, the tough gets going
'Cause I never give up my pride
Even though I'm broken up inside
I never give up my pride
Though at times my world may seem to capsize
I never give up my pride

Trade winds keep on blowing
My life keeps on going
Jah's love keeps on flowing

So I never give up my pride
Even though I'm broken down inside
I never give up my pride
Though my world may seem sometimes to capsize
I never give up my pride

Although I paid my dues
They won't let me be what I wanna be
But they would like to see me succumbing to society
My life has been filled with ups and downs
Sometimes I never knew which way to turn

When the going gets rough, the tough gets going
'Cause I never give up my pride
Even though I'm broken up inside
I never give up my pride
Even though sometimes my world capsize
Never give up my pride
