Lyrics

[Intro]

One, two, three, four

[Instrumental]

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-ah

[Verse 1]

Mommy, Daddy, come and look at me now

I'm a big man in a great big town

Years ago, who would believe it's true?

Goes to show what a little faith can do

[PreChorus]

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps

I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

[Instrumental]

I slipped, and I got pulled, pulled up

I tripped, and then you pulled, you pulled me up

I slipped, and I got pulled, pulled up

I slipped, and then you pulled, you pulled me up

[PostChorus]

Pulled me up-up, pulled me up-up-up-ah

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

[Verse 2]

I drift away to another land

Sleeping, dreaming, such a simple thing

I think of things that I might be

I see my name go down in history

[PreChorus]

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps

I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

[Instrumental]

I slipped, and I got pulled, pulled up

I tripped, and then you pulled, you pulled me up

I tripped, and I got pulled, pulled up

I slipped, and then you pulled, you pulled me up

[PostChorus]

Pulled me up-up, pulled me up-up-up-ah

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

[Bridge]

I got up 'cause you pulled me up

I stood up 'cause you pulled me up

I got up and that's because you pulled me up

I got up in a little while, you pulled me up

Up, pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

Aye-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

Aye-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

[Verse 3]

I cast a shadow on the living room wall

Dark and savage with a profile so sharp

Keep that wonderful food on the table

There's really no hurry, I'll eat in a while

[PreChorus]

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps

I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

[Instrumental]

I slipped, and I got pulled, pulled up

I tripped, and then you pulled, you pulled me up

I slipped, and I got pulled, pulled up

I slipped, and then you pulled, you pulled me up

[PostChorus]

Pulled me up-up, pulled me up-up-up, oh I got

Ah-ya-ya-ya-ya-yeah

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

Ah-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up

Ah-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up
