[VERSE 1]

 

My daddy said to me when I was just a young boy

If you wanna be the best, gotta do what you enjoy

Gotta make your own path, gotta blaze your own trail

Cause your train won’t run if you can’t lay the rail

Roll up your sleeves and put your heart into it

If you want it bad enough, you gotta find a way to do it

 

 

[CHORUS]

 

When the chips are down, and things look bad

Gotta give it everything that you never knew you had

When it’s all said and done, and you get right to it

If you want it bad enough, you gotta find a way to do it

 

 

[VERSE 2]

 

You don’t have to put your money in another man’s pocket

You don’t have to be a scientist to learn to build a rocket

Nobody taught a cave man how to make a fire

He just got a little cold and had a burning desire

So he found himself a rock and he put a stick to it

If you want it bad enough, you gotta find a way to do it

 

 

[REPEAT CHORUS]

 

 

[VERSE 3]

 

You can’t swim the river if you’re scared of getting wet

Can’t roll a lucky seven if you’re scared to make a bet

Gotta reach into the well, gotta pull the bucket up

Cause the water tastes better when you fill your own cup

Find yourself a grindstone, and put your nose to it

If you want it bad enough, you gotta find a way to do it

 

 

[REPEAT CHORUS]
