Try! When every day life starts to get you down And your problems seem too many When your job is shit, the rent is due And you're down to your last penny Where do you go? Who do you count on When there's no place left to hide? When your parents don' like you and they told you so They wish that you had died Refrain: I look at you - and I know what to do I look at you - I know what to do I look at you - and I know what to do I look at you - I know what to do They gotta try! Now I'm not here to preach or tell you The way you got to live Just stop and think about what you want And what you want to give Goddammit life is what we're here for Not to watch fuckin' TV But if that's (where) you think the answer is Then better get away from me Refrain Try again! You got to get up in the morning and try again Not tomorrow - do it today Young or old, it don't matter man Don't let your life slip away You got take a chance - push yourself Stand up for what you know is right Don't take no shit from anyone Let'em know that you're ready to fight Try again! Now, there's no easy answers But here's my final advice to you Take control of your life, man Work hard and follow thru And if a friend is travelling a rocky road Then help him on his way Tell him that he's got to try again And try harder every day Refrain Repeat 3rd verse
