Song: You Can Get It If You Really Want

Learning English isn't easy, but if you try very hard, you can do it! This song was recorded in 1972 by Jamaican singer Jimmy Cliff.



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!

Persecution you must bear.
Win or lose, you've got to get your share.
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.
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:

Rome was not built in a day.
Opposition will come your way.
But the hotter the battle, you see,
It's the sweeter the victory, now!

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!

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!
Keep on trying!
