ONCE I GOT FED UP WHEN YOU TOLD ME WHAT TO DO,
BUT STILL I DID IT, TO MYSELF I WAS UNTRUE.
BUT NOW I'M STRONGER, I CAN SEE A BETTER WAY,
YOU'D BETTER LISTEN HARD TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY.
I'VE DONE IT, I WON IT, NOT RUNNING AWAY
I GOT UP, I GOT UP,
I GOT UP AND I AIN'T GOING DOWN AGAIN.
I GOT UP, I GOT UP,
I GOT UP AND I AIN'T GOING DOWN AGAIN.
MY FRIENDS HAD TOLD ME I WAS GOING DOWN FAST,
THEY TRIED TO TELL ME NOT TO LIVE IN THE PAST.
NOW I CAN LAUGH BECAUSE I KNOW THEY WERE RIGHT,
YOUR DIRTY DOG, YOUR BARK WAS WORSE THAN YOUR BITE.
I'VE DONE IT, I WON IT AND HERE'S WHAT I SAY.
I GOT UP, I GOT UP,
I GOT UP AND I AIN'T GOING DOWN AGAIN.
YEAH.
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da oh)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da oh)
IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THAT I CAN SET MYSELF FREE,
ANYTIME I WANT TO, I CAN BE THE REAL ME.
SO NOW I'M TELLING YOU WHATEVER I DO,
ONE THING IS CERTAIN IT WILL BE WITHOUT YOU.
I'VE DONE IT, I WON IT, SO BE ON YOUR WAY.
I GOT UP, I GOT UP,
I GOT UP AND I AIN'T GOING DOWN AGAIN.
YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT.
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da oh…..)
I'M GOING UP, BABY, I AIN'T GOING DOWN
NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY OR DO
BE ON YOUR WAY, GET OUT OF HERE!
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da oh…..)
GOODBYE YOU, DIRTY, DIRTY DOG
OH, OH,
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da)
(Ba ba bam da da, ba ba bam da da oh…..)
