Story Behind The Song
Be a Doer was originally a Christian Song (Gotta Be a Doer). For my new CD, I decided to rewrite it for a secular audience and direct the motivation to school children to work hard, stay focused and learn teamwork. I borrowed the rap section from a song of mine called Teamwork (Motivate with Mrs. Kate).
Song Description
Highly motivational, this song starts and ends with a powerful train sound. The driving beat and energy of this song will get kids revved up about working hard, doing their best, staying focused and cooperating as a team.

Lyrics
You've gotta be a doer
Not just a listen to-er
You've gotta be a do do do do doer.
You've gotta be a doer
Not just a listen to-er
You've gotta be a do do do do doer.
You've gotta gotta work
And focus on your task
Make an effort to cooperate
We will achieve success
When we all give it our best
In everything we do and say.
RAP 1: We're teaming up our talent,
Our ideas and our skills.
No one's gonna stop us
Cuz we can and yes, we will
RAP 2: We believe in quality,
We're bound to make it great.
Here's how we work together
We are Team Cooperate!
