Verse 1
E
Childhood part of my life,
it 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 besides me.
We hardly had enough food
or room to sleep.
It was hard times,
Em
Needed something to ease
E
my troubled mind.
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 downhearted
I took to cloud nine,
I'm doin' fine,
Em
E
up here on cloud nine.
Em
Listen one more time I'm doin' fine,
E
Em
E
up here on cloud nine.
Folks down there tell me,
They say, "give yourself a chance son,
A
don't let life pass you by".
E
But the world of reality is a rat race
A
where only the strongest survive,
E
It's a dog eat dog world,
A
and that ain't no lie.
B
Listen! it ain't even safe no more
to walk the streets at night,
Em
E
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine.

I'm riding high
On cloud nine,

you're as free as a bird in flight

between day and night

of love and harmony
