Lyrics

[Chorus]
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
[Verse 1]
Push a little harder
Think a little deeper
Don't let the plastic bring you down
All together now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
[Verse 2]
Time's still creeping
Especially when you're sleeping
Wake up and go for what you know
All together now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
[Verse 3]
You'll get what's due you
And everything coming to you
You got to move if you wanna be ahead
All together now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Instrumental]
You can make it if you try
You can make it if you try
[Verse 4]
Time's still creeping
Especially when you're sleeping
Wake up and go for what you know
All together now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
You can make it if you try (Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma make it)
You can make it if you try (Make it)
You can make it if you try (Ooh, make it)
You can make it if you try (You can make it, make it, make it, make it)
You can make it if you try (Make it, make it, make it, make it, make it, make it, make it)
You can make it if you try
[Instrumental]
You can make it if you try (Ooh, you can make it, make it, make it, don't stop, make it)
You can make it if you try (Ow, good God)
You can make it if you try (Ooh, ah, ah)
You can make it if you try (You can make it, make it, make it, make it)
You can make it if you try (Make it, mama, make it, mama, make it, mama, make it, mama, make it)
You can make it if you try (You can make it)
You can make it if you try (Make it, mama, make it, mama, ow)
