You gotta try

(Billy Bob Thornton/J.D Andrew)


You curse your studio back in the alley
There's nothin' wrong with livin' in the valley
It won't add up if you just keep a tally
You look at every loss as a finale

You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try

Know that failure could just make you bolder
Why does losing only make you colder
Don't forget that chip there on your shoulder
That's the friend you'll need as you get older

You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try

Did you have the passion in the first place
Or just the ease of getting by with that place
What exactly was it you were earning
For the short time that your fire was brightly burning

All they handed you was satisfyin'
When it's up to you it always starts you cryin'
Set your mind on simply qualifyin'
Bein' in the game sure as hell beats dyin'

You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try, you gotta try
You gotta try...
