So don't take for granted the life we've been blessed
And we must all have the will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will
The will to live
Oh, you got to have the will to live
And we must all have the will to live
The will to live
But she kept the rhythm and is still alive, she's still alive
And we must all have the will to live
The will to live
Then I met a man who had to walk with his hands
Some are born with more and some born with less
And each one of us shall be put to life's test, oh, life's test
Oh, the will, oh, the will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will
Oh, you got to have the will to live
Still he walks taller than most of us can
They told her mother that she never would survive
Oh, you got to have the will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will
It's hard to understand that we're only a guest
Born into a world he couldn't stand
Blessed with life but cursed as a man
