Wanna Be up Lyrics

Wanna be up
Don't wanna be down
Don't wanna see life go 'round this way
I'm going as fast as I can

Just a kid in a backstreet alley, working everyday
People stop and they look at him and they say he sings like Myrtle Mae
He can't work a full day, he can't earn a dollar, he can hurt you with his ways
You do everything he wants you to

Did he work you all the time?
Did you wanna run and hide?
Did you turn your face and cry? Like I knew... Knew... Knew...

I had fell under his smile
I had felt his staring eyes
You might think that he's real cool
I know, he's a real big dud

Did he work you all the time?
Did you wanna run and hide?
Did you turn your face and cry? Like I knew... Knew... Knew...

Wanna be up
Don't wanna be down
Don't wanna see life go 'round this way
I'm going as fast as I can

Wanna be up
Don't wanna be down
Don't wanna see life go 'round this way
I'm going as fast as I can

Did he work you all the time?
Did you wanna run and hide?
Did you turn your face and cry? Like I knew... Knew... Knew...

Wanna be up
Don't wanna be down
Don't wanna see life go 'round this way
I'm going as fast as I can

Wanna be up
Don't wanna be down
Don't wanna see life go 'round this way
I'm going as fast as I can

Don't leave me this way
I'm going as fast as I can
Don't leave me this way
I'm going as fast as I can
Don't leave me this way
I'm going as fast as I, caaaaaaan...
