You Can Make It If You Try

(album: Midnight Rainbows - 1975)

You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
You're gonna live until you die, whoa
You can make it if you try

And sometimes you're gonna cry
Oh, you may not know the reason why
Still you're gonna live until you die, whoa yeah
You can make it if you try (You can make it if you try)

Oh, wait a minute
If your baby, if she treats you wrong
Don't go around singing the blues
Remember, my friend, in order to win
You know, that don't mean somebody else has got to lose

You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
You bound to live until you die, whoa have a little mercy, now
You can make it if you try (You can make it if you try)

Y'all grow up, now
If this mean old world seems to treats you wrong
Whoa, don't go around singing the blues
Remember, my friend, huh, in order to win
Don't mean somebody else has a-got to lose

You can make it if you try
Oh, you can make it, you can make it if you try
You gonna live until you die, whoa yeah
You can make it if you try (You can make it if you try)

Try (Try), try (try), try (try)
Oh, c'mon (Try) and try (try), try (try), try (try)
C'mon, do it now, baby
'Cause you can make it if you try (You can make it if you try)
