I Can Do It
Rubettes the Lyrics

Yeah
Expressing determination and confidence in oneself

I can do it
Believing in one's abilities and skills to accomplish something

I can really rock
Capable of performing with energy and enthusiasm

Ooh
Exclamation to emphasize excitement

Ah-thinkin' 'bout guitars when I was just a kid
Reflecting on childhood memories of music

Just lookin' back on the things we did
Remembering past experiences

Like hangin' round at the local hop
Spending time at a nearby social gathering

With my candy and my soda pop
Enjoying confections and beverages while socializing

I guess I never really stood a chance
Feeling uncertain about one's potential

I liked the music but I couldn't dance
Enjoying the sounds of music but struggling to dance

I guess I've really learnt a lot since then
Reflecting on personal growth over time

'Cause I can really do it now it's back again.
Feeling confident in current abilities and skills

I can really move
Capable of dancing and moving to music

From my head right down to my blue suede shoes
Feeling the music throughout one's body

I can really make the groove
Capable of setting the rhythm and style of the music

Dancin' was trouble thinkin' 'bout it now
Recalling the difficulties of dancing in the past

I had no girl friend to show me how
Lamenting the lack of guidance in learning to dance

I was too young to date
Being too young for romantic relationships

Too old to wait
Feeling impatient for personal growth and progress

It's kinda sad I was born too late
Expressing regret for not experiencing something in its prime

But like I said I learnt a lot since then
Highlighting personal growth and progress over time

And I can really do it now It's back again
Feeling confident and capable of dancing and performing

I can do the jive
Capable of performing a popular dance style

I can do the stroll
Capable of performing another popular dance style

It's just another name for rock 'n' roll.
Equating different dance styles with the broader genre of rock music
