Song lyrics
try, try, try just a little bit harder
so i can love, love, love him, i tell myself
cause i'm gonna try, oh yeah, just a little bit harder
so i won't lose, lose, lose him to nobody else, yeah

hey, i don't care how long it's gonna take you
but if it's a dream i don't want, no i don't really want it
yeah if it's a dream i don't want nobody to wake me

yeah i'm gonna try, oh yeah, just a little bit harder
so I can give, give, give, give him every bit of my soul
i'm gonna try, oh yeah, just a little bit harder
so I can show, show, show him love with no control, yeah
hey i don't care how long it's gonna take you
but if it's a dream i don't want, no i don't really want it
yeah if it's a dream i don't want nobody to wake me
hey dig it! yeah! yeah-yeah-yeah!
yeah, yeah, yeah, all right

try oh yeah, hey, try oh yeah, lord, lord, lord,
try oh yeah, try oh yeah, lord, lord, lord,

oh yeah, yeah, you better try, try, try, try a little more
you ain't never gonna get any man if that's the sort of thing you can do
shit, there's lot more talent around than that man
try, try, try, try try try
you've gotta try, try, try, try
try, try, try, try, try, try
you gotta try, try, try, try
