CAN DO, by                    
First Line: Don't sit around and feel blue
Last Line: And he will always win for you.
Subject(s): Calm; Placid; Undisturbed; Tranquility


Don't sit around and feel blue
About what the other people do,
But get right in and try,
And never do say die.
Now some people say it can't be done,
But if you start right on the run
You'll soon have it done
And have a lot of fun.
For all good things come to him that waits
If you do not too long hesitate.
But pitch right in with a grin
And do the very best you "kin."
Now "I can't" is a no-good guy;
He always says, "If I could I would try."
But "I can do" is always true
And he will always win for you.
