Youve Got to Do it by Fred Rogers Lyrics
You can make believe it happens
Or pretend that something's true
You can wish or hope or contemplate a thing you’d like to do
But until you start to do it
You will never see it through
'Cause the make-believe pretending just won't do it for you
You’ve got to do it
Every little bit
You've got to do it
Do it
Do it
Do it
And when you're through
You can know who did it
For you did it
You did it
You did it
If you want to ride a bicycle
And ride it straight and tall
You can't simply sit and look at it
'Cause it won't move at all
But it's you who have to try it
And it's you who have to fall, sometimes
If you want to ride a bicycle
And ride it straight and tall
You’ve got to do it
Every little bit
You’ve got to do it
Do it
Do it
Do it
And when you're through
You can know who did it
For you did it
You did it
You did it
It’s not easy to keep trying
But it's one good way to grow
It's not easy to keep learning
But I know that this is so
When you've tried and learned you’re bigger than you were a day ago
It's not easy to keep trying
But it's one way to grow
You've got to do it
Every little bit
You've got to do it
Do it
Do it
Do it
And when you're through
You can know who did it
For you did it
You did it
You did it
Or pretend that something's true
You can wish or hope or contemplate a thing you’d like to do
But until you start to do it
You will never see it through
'Cause the make-believe pretending just won't do it for you
You’ve got to do it
Every little bit
You've got to do it
Do it
Do it
Do it
And when you're through
You can know who did it
For you did it
You did it
You did it
If you want to ride a bicycle
And ride it straight and tall
You can't simply sit and look at it
'Cause it won't move at all
But it's you who have to try it
And it's you who have to fall, sometimes
If you want to ride a bicycle
And ride it straight and tall
You’ve got to do it
Every little bit
You’ve got to do it
Do it
Do it
Do it
And when you're through
You can know who did it
For you did it
You did it
You did it
It’s not easy to keep trying
But it's one good way to grow
It's not easy to keep learning
But I know that this is so
When you've tried and learned you’re bigger than you were a day ago
It's not easy to keep trying
But it's one way to grow
You've got to do it
Every little bit
You've got to do it
Do it
Do it
Do it
And when you're through
You can know who did it
For you did it
You did it
You did it
