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've 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
[Verse 2]
Rome was not built in a day
Opposition, it will come your way
But the harder 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
