Billy Ocean - "When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going" Lyrics

When the going gets tough
The tough get going, tough, tough
When the going gets tough, the tough get ready

Yeah, oh, du da do da

I got something to tell you
I got something to say
I'm gonna put this dream in motion
Never let nothing stand in my way
When the going gets touch
The tough get going

I'm gonna get myself 'cross the river
That's the price I'm willing to pay
I'm gonna make you stand and deliver
And give me love in the old-fashion way

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain
Darlin', I'll do anything

Ooo, can I touch you?
And do the things that lovers do
Ooo, wanna hold you
I gotta get it through to you, oh

When the going gets tough
The tough get going
When the going gets rough
The tough get rough
Hey, hey, hey
Oh baby

I'm gonna buy me a one-way ticket
Nothin's gonna hold me back
Your love's like a slow train coming
And I feel it coming down the track

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain
Darlin', I'll do anything

Ooo, can I touch you?
And do the things that lovers do
Ooo, wanna hold you
I gotta get it through to you, oh

'Cos when the going gets tough
The tough get going
When the going gets rough
The tough get rough

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on hit it
Woh, yeah, yeah, yeah

Darlin', I'll climb any mountain
Darlin', I'll swim any sea
Darlin', I'll reach for the heaven
Darlin', with you lovin' me, ooo

Can I touch you?
Do the things that lovers do
Ooo, wanna hold you
I gotta get it through to you

When the going gets tough
Going gets tough
Going gets rough
Going gets rough

When the going gets tough
Going gets tough
Going gets rough
Going gets rough

When the going gets tough
Going gets tough
Going gets rough
Going gets rough
