Well you never know just what you can do till you try
And most folks seem to be satisfied to get by
Why you can do better when you just let her
Prove to the world you're a real go-getter
But you'll never know just what you can do till you try

Until a bird tries it's wings
It doesn't even know it can fly
But soon it goes soaring way off into the sky
You can be great or you can be small
Some things take no talent at all
But you'll never know just what you can do till you try

[ fiddle - steel ]

So pay no attention to the bad things others may say
Just keep looking and searching
And you'll find success on your way
I write songs and I write music
My critics say that don't excuse it
But you'll never know just what you can do till you try

Well you never know just what you can do till you try...
