Cloud Nine

In the style of

The Temptations

Lyrics

ooh

the childhood part
of my life
wasn't very pretty
see
i was born and raised
in the slums
of the city

it was
a one-room shack
that slept
ten other children
beside me
we hardly
had enough food
or room to sleep

it was hard times
needed somethin'
to ease
my troubled mind
mm listen

my father
didn't know
the meaning
of work
he disrespected mama
and treated us
like dirt

i left home
seekin' a job
that i never did find
depressed and
downhearted
i took to cloud nine

i'm doin' fine
up here
on cloud nine
listen

a-one more time
i'm doin' fine
up here
on cloud nine

folks down there
tell me
they say
give yourself
a chance son
don't let life
pass you by

but the world
of reality's
a rat race
where only
the strongest
survive

it's a
dog-eat-dog world
and that ain't no lie
listen

it ain't even
safe no more
to walk the streets
at night
i'm doin' fine
on cloud nine
let me tell you 'bout
cloud nine

you can be
what you wanna be
you ain't got no
responsibility
and every man
every man is free

and you're
a million miles
from reality
reality
higher
up up and away

i wanna say
i love the life i live
and i'm gonna live
the life i love

up here
on cloud nine
i, i, i, i, i
i'm ridin' high high
on cloud nine

you're as free
as a bird in flight
there's
no difference
between
day and night

it's a world of love
and harmony
you're a million miles
from reality
reality
higher
up up and away

a-you can be
what you wanna be-a
you ain't got no
responsibility
every man
in his mind is free

you're a million miles
from reality
you can be
what you wanna be

aw
doom boom boom
ba boom boom
doom boom boom
ba boom boom

doom boom boom
ba boom boom
i'm doin' fine
on cloud nine
