I Shall Get Over

[Verse 1]
You were the only one in this house with an income
You said "baby, farewell", that I had been a bad girl
Did you think I'd drop dead, even go out of my head?
Or get down on my knees and start to beggin' you please
Go on, see if I care, you never played the game fair
Happiness I wish you, may all of your dreams come true
As the curtain closes, I won't throw any roses
But one more thing:

[Chorus 1]
I shall get over, I shall get over
Because I'm tough, I'm a winner
I am no beginner
As time will prove
I shall gеt over, I shall get over
Just as surе as I was born
I'll make it through the storm
I'll make it through

[Post-Chorus]
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha...
Oh yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
I'm tellin' no fiction, I don't need any friction
Took a vacation for my determination
Realizing my fate, I know it's not too late
To stop, get into high gear, developing my career
Stop, get into high gear, developing my career
I think it's essential to find out my potential
I have nothing to lose, had my share of bad news
When the racing is through, I may come in #2
But you can bet:

[Chorus 2]
I shall get over, shall get over
Although the odds are against me
No one can convince me
That I can't fly
I shall get over, I shall get over
As long as God won't forsake me
No one else can break me
So let them try

[Post-Chorus]
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha...
Oh yeah, oh yeah

[Bridge]
Ah baby, I bet you
Ah baby, I betcha
Ah baby, I bet you
Ah baby, I betcha
Ah baby, I bet you
Ah baby, I betcha
Ah baby, I bet you
Ah baby, I betcha

[Outro]
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I bet you, I shall get over, yeah
Ah baby, I betcha, I shall get over, yeah
