And straighten yourself out
You've got to catch up and win the race
You can do it, yeah, yeah
Once it hits bottom things may turn around

You can do it, you can do it
You can do it, you can do it
Let's make an end to this sad, sad song
And straighten yourself out
...
And let's make and end to this sad, sad song
I know it seems they're messing with your mind

'Cause I know that you know how
You can do it, yeah, yeah, yeah
You've got to catch up and win the race
'Cause the pill has an awful taste

But you've been shot to hell
You can do it, you can do it

Unfortunately this is the case

Just come back and join us now
They can't understand that you mean to do good
Everything you've say has taken long
Just open up and swallow down

So let the bygone be bygone

For you it's hard to take
I guess you could say you're misunderstood
Oh, straighten yourself out
Unfortunately this is the case
You can do it, you can do it
Unfortunately this is the case
One minute here the next you're gone
But you don't have to go forward blind
Enough to say it's a sad, sad song
I know you're meaning well
You can do it, you can do it
You've got to catch up and win the race
