Try Harder

I used to think that it was all in my head Like some kind of condition from a book that I read I couldn't take much more than I'd been through So, I called up the doctor, I said what should I do? He told me Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Try a little harder to get what you want Keep singing Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Push a little farther just to make it on your own I woke up to some bad news today Just when I thought things were finally going my way But my car won't start and I got piles of bills to pay When life gets you down well you know what they say Keep singing Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Try a little harder to get what you want Keep singing Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Push a little farther just to make it on your own (make it on your own) Make it on your own (make it on your own) Make it on your own (make it on your own) Make it on your own (make it on your own) One of these days you're gonna wake up and find yourself Wondering if you've done right or should've done somethin' else It gets hard to believe you're gonna find a way But that's the price you pay Looking back to where it all began At the edge of the world with my toes in the sand I cried out, "Daddy what if I can't swim?" He said, "You'll never know if you don't dive in" Keep singin' Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Try a little harder to get what you want Keep singin' Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Push a little farther just to make it on your own Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Try a little harder to get what you want Keep singin' Sometimes you gotta try a little harder Push a little farther just to make it on your own (make it on your own) Make it on your own (make it on your own) Make it on your own (make it on your own) Make it on your own
