Yesterday I couldn't get myself arrested
Yesterday they couldn't give me away
Yesterday they said, "Jack, you can't climb that beanstalk"
But today, as I run up that stalk
You can hear me say
Yes, I can
Suddenly, yes, I can
I've had enough
No, you can't
I'm changing to yes, I can
I could zoom into the sky
Today I could [?] Superman if I tried
Got the feeling I can do anything
Yes, I can
Something that sings in my blood is telling me
Yes, I can
So goodbye yesterday
I can go all the way
Yes, I can
Yes, I can
Suddenly, yes I can
Gee, I'm afraid to go on has turned into
Yes, I can
Take a look, what do you see?
A hundred and eighty-five pounds of confidence
Me
Are you ready?
Yes, I can
Suddenly, yes I can
Something it rings in my brain, it's telling me
Yes, I can
I have just found the key
The door will swing wide for me
I was just born today
I can go all the way
Yes, I can
