[VAN BUREN]
You've gotta have heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
That's when the grin should start
You've gotta have hope
Mustn't sit around and mope
Nothin's half as bad as it may appear
Wait'll next year and hope
When your luck is battin' zero
Get your chin up off the floor
Mister you can be a hero
You can open any door, there's nothin' to it but to do it
You've gotta have heart
Miles 'n miles n' miles of heart
Oh, it's fine to be a genius of course
But keep that old horse
Before the cart
First you've gotta have heart
[ROCKY]
A great slugger we haven't got
[SMOKEY]
A great pitcher we haven't got
[VERNON]
A great ball club we haven't got
[ROCKY, SMOKEY & VERNON]

We've got heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
That's when the grin should start
[ROCKY, SMOKEY, LINVILLE]
We've got hope
We don't sit around and mope
Not a solitary sob do wwe heave

[ROCKY]
We've gotta get better, 'cause we can't get worse!
[ALL]
And to add to it, we've got heart
We've got heart
We've got heart
We've got heart
All you really need is heart
When the odds are sayin' you'll never win
