Cloud Nine lyrics

A-who, who, awho, who...

[Dennis]

The childhood part of my life wasn't very pretty

You see, 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 food or room to sleep

It was hard times

Needed something to ease my troubled mind

[Paul]

My father didn't know the meaning of the word

He disrespected Mama and treated us like dirt

I left home seeking a job that I never did find

Depressed and down-hearted, I took to Cloud 9

I'm doing (fine)

Up here (on cloud nine)

Listen, one more time

I'm doing (fine)

Up here (on cloud nine)

[Dennis]

Folks now they tell me

They say, "Give yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by"

But the world around you is a rat race where only the strong survive

It's a dog-eat-dog world and that ain't no lie

Listen, it ain't even safe no more, to walk the streets at night

[Eddie]

I'm doing fine on Cloud 9

[Dennis]

Let me tell you about Cloud 9

(Cloud 9)

[Paul] You can be what you wanna be

(Cloud 9)

[Dennis] You ain't got no responsibility

(Cloud 9)

[Eddie] Every man, every man is free

(Cloud 9)

[Dennis] You're a million miles from reality

(Reality) I'm gonna sail (up, up) higher (up, up... up, up and away) Cloud 9

[Eddie:]

I wanna say I love the life I live

And I'm gonna live the life I love

Up here on Cloud 9

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I'm riding high on Cloud 9

[Dennis] You're as free as a bird in flight

(Cloud 9) [Melvin:] There's no difference between day and night

(Cloud 9) [Eddie:] It's a world of love and harmony

(Cloud 9) [Dennis:] You're a million miles from reality

(Reality) I'm gonna sail (up, up) higher (up, up... up, up and away) Cloud 9

[Paul] You can be what you wanna be

(Cloud 9) [Dennis] You ain't got no responsibility

(Cloud 9) [Eddie] Every man in his mind is free

(Cloud 9) [Dennis] You're a million miles from reality

(Cloud 9) [Paul] You can be what you wanna be

Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom...

[Eddie]

I'm feeling fine on Cloud 9
