Youve Got To Do It by Holly Yarbrough 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
If you want to read a reading book and read the real words too
You can't simply sit and ask the words to read themselves to you
But you have to ask a person who can show you one or two
If you want to read a reading book and read the real words, too
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
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
If you want to read a reading book and read the real words too
You can't simply sit and ask the words to read themselves to you
But you have to ask a person who can show you one or two
If you want to read a reading book and read the real words, too
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:

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
