Norman Whitfield - Cloud Nine lyrics

[Verse] 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 we slept in, the children beside me We hardly had enough food or rooms It was a hard time Needed something to ease my troubled mind Ooh listen Father didn't know the meaning of work He disrespected Mama and treated her slightly I left home seeking a job that I never did find The first thing, downhearted, I took to Cloud 9 I'm doing fine up here on Cloud 9 Listen, one more time I'm doing fine up here on Cloud 9 Folks now tell me They say, "Give yourself a chance And don't let life pa** 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 It ain't even safe no more To walk the streets at night [Chorus] I'm doing fine on Cloud 9 Let me tell you about Cloud 9 (Cloud 9) You can be what you want to be (Cloud 9) You ain't got no responsibility (Cloud 9) Yeah, every man, every man is free (Cloud 9) You're a million miles from reality (Reality) I want to say (up) higher (up up and away) Cloud 9 [Bridge] I want to say I love the life I live And I'm going to live the life I love Up here on Cloud 9 Uh uh uh uh, I'm riding high on Cloud 9 [Chorus][x2]
