🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Gotta get up and try, try, try
  • Gotta get up and try, try, try
  • Funny how the heart can be deceiving

Sing it again — final chorus

  • Gotta get up and try, try, try
  • You've gotta get up and try, try, try
  • Ever worry that it might be ruined
thereyou'veflame
