Karaoke Cloud Nine

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
I slept ten other children beside me
We hardly had enough food or room to sleep
It was hard times
I needed somethin' ease
My troubled mind hmm 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 down hearted I took to cloud nine
An' I'm doin' fine up here on cloud nine listen one more time
I'm doin' fine up here on cloud nine folks now they tell me
They say give yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by
'Cos the world around is a rat race where only the strong 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 lemme tell ya 'bout cloud nine
You can be what you wanna be
You ain't got no responsibilities
An' every man every man is free
You're a million miles from reality
I wanna say I love the life I live an' I'm gonna live the life I love
Out here on Cloud nine
I I I I I
I'm ridin' high on Cloud nine
You're as free as a bird in flight
Ain't no diff'rence 'tween day and night
It's a world of love and harmony
You're a million miles from reality
Oh you can be what you wanna be
You ain't got no responsibilities
Every man in his mind is free
You're a million miles from reality
You can be what you wanna be oh dooh
What ooh what what
I'm doing fine on Cloud nine, what
