[Verse 1]

Did you ever stop to listen to what you're missing

In the things you say? Yeah

If you open up your eyes, then you'll realize

What I say

[Chorus]

You can do what you want to

You can do, if you try

You can do what you want to

You can do, if you try

[Verse 2]

You take that golden rule that you learned in school

And just throw it away, yeah

If you're well-directed, then you're protected

From the evil ways

[Chorus]

You can do what you want to

You can do, if you try

You can do what you want to

You can do, if you try

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

You can do what you want to

You can do, if you try

You can do what you want to

You can do, if you try

[Outro]

You can do what you want to (Ooh, if you try, baby, you know you can)

You can do, if you try (Ooh, you can do)

You can do what you want to (Oh-oh)

You can do, if you try (You can do, try)

You can do what you want to
