Desmond Dekker - You Can Get It If You Really Want

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
Hmm-mm-mm, yeah

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, you can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want, yeah
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try, and try
Try and try
You'll succeed at last
Don't you know it?

Listen, Rome was not built in a day
Opposition will come your way
But the harder the battle you see
Is the sweeter, the victory, girl

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

Yeah, 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 (don't you know it?)
You can get it if you really want (do not show it)
You can get it if you really want (don't you know?)
You can get it if you really want (don't you know I show it?)
You can get it if you really want (I said I know you)
