Higher

I saw a girl today
could tell from what she say
she was a liar
she walks a wire
I tried to make her see
that this was not the way
of getting higher
and then she turned away,
so I say

hear me now
just understand, don’t get me wrong
you got to live your life, live it right,
or you’ll go back to the end of the line

higher step it up, higher just do it
right and go,
higher keep it up, higher just pick
it up and go,
higher move along, higher get off
the ground
higher lift it up, higher

there is a man I know
and everyplace he’d go, he’d take
your money
think it was funny
he’d like to get his way, he never
likes to pay
the law would chase him
but he just run away, so I say

hear me now
just understand, don’t get
me wrong
you got to live your life, live it right,
or you’ll go back to the end of the line

higher step it up, higher just do it
right and go,
higher keep it up, higher just pick
it up and go,
higher move along, higher get off
the ground
higher lift it up, higher here
we go, here we go now

I gotta friend who lives on all the love
he gives
when he retires, he’s going higher
one thing I know is true, that
everything you do
will come back to you, don’t
let it fool you
and I say

hear me now
just understand, don’t get
me wrong
you got to live your life,
and live it right,
or you’ll go back to the end of the line

I’m gonna
higher step it up, higher
just do it right and go,
higher keep it up, higher just pick
it up and go,
higher move along, higher get off
the ground
higher lift it up, higher here we go,
here we go

I’m movin’, movin’ up
I’m movin’, movin’ up
I’m movin’, movin’ up
I’m movin’, movin’ up

higher step it up, higher
just do it right and go,
higher keep it up, higher just pick
it up and go,
higher move along, higher get off
the ground
higher lift it up, higher here we go,
here we go
