Going Up Songtext / Lyric

Like water through a drain

I'm spinning down, down, down

Like the needle in my vein

You're bringing me down, down, down

Like a dog who's gone insane

You're putting me down, down, down



And those of you who doubted me

Are going down, down, down

And the record man who never called

Can you hear what's going on?



I'm coming up

I'm coming up

I'm coming up

I'm coming up



And the world ain't gonna

Catch me going down






Like the food deep in my belly

I'm going down, down, down

And for twenty bucks in the alley

I'm going down, down, down

Like the trail beneath your valley

I'm going down, down, down



For my ma, who's always honored me

I'm going down, down, down

For my pa, who never wanted me

Can you feel what's going on?



I'm coming up

I'm coming up

I'm coming up

I'm coming up



And the world ain't gonna

Catch me going down



Oh, won't you please believe me

Oh, baby, don't you leave me

Why won't you say you need me?

Please use them breasts to feed me

I ain't going down



For my ma, who's always honored me

I'm going down, down, down

For my pa, who never wanted me

Can you feel what's going on?



I'm coming up

I'm coming up

I'm coming up

I'm coming up



And the world ain't gonna

Catch me going down
