Jimmy Cliff
You Can Get It If You Really Want
[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
