Lyrics

I Want I do I Get

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Say, say, say

Do, do, do

Say, say, say

Do, do, do

Wanting, needing

Saying, praying

Dreaming, hoping

Waiting, playing

Won't get you what you want

If you keep saying you can't

Won't get you what you need

Really in words and deeds

You've got to do it

And when you do it

You will get through it

And you get through it, you say

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

And it is done

Thinking, planning

Wishing, longing

Crying, lying

Hesitating, procrastinating

Won't bring you sweet success

Won't bring you happiness

Won't bring you sweet caress

Won't bring you reprogress

You've got to do it

And when you do it

You will get through it

And you get through it, you say

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

And it is done

Not enough to say, say, say

You got to do, do, do

It's not enough to say, say, say

Here's what you do, do, do

Not enough to say, say, say

It's all you do, do, do

Not enough to say, say, say

You've got to do, do, do

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get

I want, i do, i get
