Songtexte

The childhood part of my life wasn't very pretty
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 room or food to eat
It was hard times
I needed something to ease my troubled mind
My father didn't know the meanin', the meanin' of work
And disrespected Mama, and treated us like dirt
I left home seekin' a job I never did find
Depressed and downhearted, I took to Cloud Nine
I'm doin' fine
On Cloud Nine
Let me tell you one mo' time
I'm doin' fine
On Cloud Nine, Lord, have mercy
They say, "Get yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by
But the world of reality is a rat race where only the strongest survive
It's a dog-eat-dog world and that ain't no lie
It ain't even safe no more to walk the streets at night"
I'm doin' fine
On Cloud Nine
You can be what you wanna be
You ain't got no responsibility
Every, every, every man is free
You're a million miles from reality, yeah
I wanna say I love the life I live
And I'm gonna live the life I love
To be on Cloud Nine
Up on Cloud Nine
I wanna take you up here, ha, on Cloud Nine
I wanna take you higher, Cloud Nine
Let me take you higher, on Cloud Nine
Everything's got to be alright, gonna be just fine
Ha, Cloud Nine, up on Cloud Nine
Feels so good, on Cloud Nine
Go take your shoes off, ha
Do your thing, hey, hey, ha! Ha, on Cloud Nine
I wanna take you up, up, up, up!
