Here we go, here we go now

I saw a girl today
Could tell from what she say
She was a liar
She walks a wire
I tried to make here see
That this was not the way
Of getting higher
And then she turned away, so I say hear me now
Just understand, don't get me wrong
You got to live your life, live it right
Or you'll go back to the end of the line
Higher step it up, higher just do it right and go
Higher keep it up, higher just pick it up and you go
Higher move along, higher get off the ground
Higher lift it up, higher

There is a man I know
And everyplace he'd go he'd take your money
Think it was funny
He'd like to get his way, he never likes to pay
The law would chase him
But he just run away, so I say hear me now
Just understand, don't get me wrong
You got to live your life, live it right
Or you'll go back to the end of the line
Higher step it up, higher just do it right and go
Higher keep it up, higher just pick it up and you go
Higher move along, higher get of the ground
Higher lift it up, higher here we go, here we go now

I gotta friend who lives on all the love he gives
When he retires, he's going higher
One thing I know is true, that everything you do
Will come back to you, don't let it fool you
And I say hear me now
Just understand, don't get me wrong You got to live your life, and live it right
Or you'll go back to the end of the line
Higher step it up, higher just do it right and go
Higher keep it up, higher just pick it up and you go
Higher move along, higher get of the ground
Higher lift it up, higher here we go, here we go now

Higher step it up, higher just do it right and go
Higher keep it up, higher just pick it up and you go
Higher move along, higher get of the ground
Higher lift it up, higher here we go, here we go now...
