Lyrics
You can do it
I can do it!
You can try
I can try!
I will do it
You will do it!
I will try!
Just like learning how to stand, and learning how to walk
Or learning how to tie your shoes, tell the time, or talk
These are skills that you didn’t understand right away
You needed practice all the time, in fact every day!
And little by little and bit by bit
You got better, ya you got it!
And maybe people helped, helped show you the way
And you made mistakes but that’s OK!
Because, because
You can do it
I can do it!
You can try
I can try!
I will do it
You will do it!
I will try!
Now look at that mountain, can you get to the top?
I think you can, just start and don’t stop
The road may be windy, and rough, and long
That’s OK, just remember this song
There will be many challenges as you go along
And there will be many times where you get things wrong
But if you look deep inside your heart and your mind
There’s a little voice that you will certainly find
And it will say, it will say
You can do it
I can do it!
You can try
I can try!
I will do it
You will do it!
I will try!
You can do it
I can do it!
You can try
I can try!
I will do it
You will do it!
I will try!
You can do it
I can do it!
You can try
I can try!
I will do it
You will do it!
I will try!
You can do it
I can do it!
You can try
I’m trying!
I will do it!
I will try!
