Couldn't Be Done!---But 1t Was Done!

Somebody said II couldn't be done,
But he with a chuckle, replied,
That maybe it couldn't, but that he wouldn't
Be one who would say so, I'm til he had tried.
SO he buckled right in, with a trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried, he hid it.
He started to sing, as he tackl ed the thing
q That couldn't be done, and he did it,
Somebody said, 20, you'll never do that,
d, AT least, nobody ever has done it."
But he took off his coat, and t ook off his hat,
And the first thing we knew, he'd begun it.
With q lift Of his chin, and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubling or quitting,
He started to sing, and he tackl ed the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophecy failure,
There are thousands to point on one by one
The dangers that await to assal you.
But just buckle in with a trace Of a grin,
Take off your coat and go to it.
Just start out to sing, as you ia ckle the thing
That cannot be done, and youn do it.
Which all goes to prove that you can win that automobile that
giving away, whether others thin X so Or not.
