You Can Make It
Hill Country Revue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It is hard from the start
You can make it with the (Lord?)
It’s gonna be tough, rugged and rough
And I know you’ve had enough
Hang in there and hold on strong
There’s no one here but you’re not alone

You can make it now, don’t give up
You can make it now, don’t give up
You can make it now, don’t give up
You can make it now, don’t give up

I walk alone…A lonesome road
And there’s something that I know
There’ll be people who’ll do you wrong
But what don’t kill you, makes you strong
Keep on walkin’ down that road
You will (release?) a heavy load

You can make it now, don’t give up…etc.

Just remember something else
No one can help you unless you help yourself
Take it from me.Just believe me
You’re gonna make it but it won’t be easy
Stickin’ together is a major step
This is something that I know will help





You can make it now, don’t give up…etc…
