You can get by if you try
You can get by if you try
Somewhere in the city
There's someone for you
Maybe in some doorway
You know love begins there too
I know it's a pity
To be so all alone
The bed seems so empty
And not a ring from the phone
You can get by if you try
You can get by if you try
You may not be pretty
Oh but you can be, you know
Take off those shabby clothes, girl
And let your beauty show
Make yourself a lovely woman
And get yourself a man
Then you will be happy
You can do it, yes you can, hey hey
You can get by if you try
You can get by if you try
You can get by if you try
You can get by if you try
