I Just Might
[JUDY]
What to do and where to start
Things are falling all apart
Tryin' hard to move ahead
But keep losin' ground instead
Still I have to take a chance
Putting fear and doubt aside
Had no warning in advance
Nothin' left to do but try
And I just might make it work
I just might make it after all
I just might rise above the hurt
Though I suffered quite a fall
But I have to get a grip
Hold onto it like a vise, hmm
Have to face the fallen chips
I just might make it, I just might
[DORALEE]
You're the one that keeps me strong
You're the shoulder I lean on
[VIOLET]
Hard to swallow pride
[DORALEE]
When I think I've had enough
I think of you and toughen up
[VIOLET]
I know the truth inside
[DORALEE]
Love's a weapon and a tool
And I am nobody's fool
[VIOLET]
I'm nobody's fool
[DORALEE]
I'll just try to right what's wrong
[DORALEE & VIOLET]
And just keep on keepin' on
[DORALEE]
But I just might make it work
