Lyrics

[Chorus] You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want But you must try, try and try, try and try You'll succeed at last [Verse 1] Persecution you must fear Win or lose you got to get your share You've got your mind set on a dream You can get it though hard it may seem now [Chorus] You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want But you must try, try and try, try and try You'll succeed at last I know it, listen [Verse 2] Rome was not built in a day Opposition will come your way But the hotter the battle you see Is the sweeter the victory now [Chorus] You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want But you must try, try and try, try and try You'll succeed at last You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want You can get it if you really want But you must try, try and try, try and try You'll succeed at last [Outro] (You can get it if you really want) I know it (You can get it if you really want) Don't I show it (You can get it if you really want) Don't give up now (You can get it if you really want) Keep on trying
