Stiff Upper Lip lyrics

by

Ella Fitzgerald


[Intro]
What made good Queen Bess
Such a great success?
What made Wellington do
What he did at Waterloo?
What makes every Englishman
A fighter through and through?
It isn't roast beef or ale or home or mother
It's just a little thing they sing to one another

[Verse 1]
Stiff upper lip, stout fella
Carry on, old fluff
Chin up, keep muddling through

[Verse 2]
Stiff upper lip, stout fella
When the going's rough
Pip-pip to old man trouble and a toodly-oo too

[Bridge]
Carry on through thick and thin
If you feel you're in the right
Does the fighting spirit win?
Quite, quite, quite, quite, quite
[Verse 3]
Stiff upper lip, stout fella
When you're in the stew
Sober or blotto
This is your motto
Keep muddling through

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
When a bounder starts to hiss
You must give him blow for blow
Make the blighter say, "What's this?
'Ullo, 'ullo, 'ullo, 'ullo, 'ullo"

[Verse 3]
Stiff upper lip, stout fella
When you're in the stew
Sober or blotto
This is your motto
Keep muddling through

[Outro]
Keep muddling through
Keep muddling through
Keep muddling through
