Just been chatting to Belinda, one of our lovely ninjas 🙂
She’d been listening to Sarah Cox on the old wireless on the way down.
She was telling me they’d played a song she’d not heard in a while.
And she’d enjoyed it and the message if gave.
Twas ‘You Can Get It If You Really Want’.
By Desmond Dekker.
Lyrics in a mo.
It’s got a great message.
The need to try, try, try.
Every month we tell our new challengers that we’ll do everything we can to support them on their journey.
But they still have to actually ‘do it’.
It’s a little reminder for us all that the journey won’t neccisarily be easy.
But with some elbow grease we can all get there.
Hope you find it useful:
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try, you’ll succeed at last
Persecution you must bear
Win or lose you’ve got to get your share
You’ve got your mind set on a dream
You can get it, though harder them seem now
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try, you’ll succeed at last
Don’t you know, listen
Rome was not built in a day
Opposition will come your way
But the hotter the battle you see
It’s the sweeter the victory, now
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try, you’ll succeed at last
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try, you’ll succeed at last
Don’t you know it
Don’t I show it
Don’t you know
Much love,
Jon ‘Desmond’s’ Hall and Matt ‘Different Strokes’ Nicholson
