Try (try), try (try), try (try) just a little bit harder
So I can love, love, love him, I tell myself (try)
Well, I'm gonna try, yeah, just a little bit harder
So I won't lose, lose, lose him to nobody else (try)
Hey! Well, I don't care how long it's gonna take you
But if it's a dream, I don't want (no, I don't really want it)
If it's a dream, I don't want nobody to wake me (wake, wake, wake me)
Yeah, I'm gonna try, yeah, just a little bit harder
So I can give, give, give, give him every bit of my soul (try)
Yeah, I'm gonna try, yeah, just a little bit harder
So I can show, show, show him love with no control (try)
Hey! I've waited so long for someone so fine
I ain't gonna lose my chance, no, I don't wanna lose it
Ain't gonna lose my chance to make you mine, all mine (mine, all mine)
Alright, hit it!
Yeah!
Try, yeah (try, just a little bit harder)
So try, yeah, hey, hey, hey
Try, yeah (try, just a little bit harder)
Oh, try, whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Oh, anybody, anybody, oh, anybody, anybody, oh
Try, oh, yeah (try, just a little bit harder)
Whoa, I gotta try some more
I said try (just a little bit harder), yeah
Aw, I said try, I said try, try, try, try, try (try, just a little bit harder)
Oh, try, oh, yeah (try, just a little bit harder)
Try, oh, yeah
Hey, hey, I gotta talk to my man now
You know I, I've gotta feel for my man now
I said I, I've gotta work for my man now
You know I, I've gotta hurt for my man now
I think-a every day for my man now
You know it, every way for my man now
I say try, try, yeah, oh, try, yeah (just a little bit harder)
Hey, hey, hey, try, yeah, hey, oh, try (just a little bit harder)
