Four Brothers movie - Cloud Nine lyrics

rate me

Song by The Temptations<br /><br>

A-who, who, awho, who...<br>

<br>

Dennis:<br>

The childhood part of my life wasn't very pretty.<br>

You see, I was born and raised in the slums of the city.<br>

It was a one room shack we slept in, other children beside me.<br>

We hardly had enough food or room to sleep.<br>

It was a hard times, needed something to ease my troubled mind.<br>

<br>

Paul:<br>

Ooo, listen.<br>

My father didn't know the meaning of work.<br>

He disrespected Mama and treated us like dirt.<br>

I left home seekin' a job that I never did find.<br>

Depressed and down-hearted, I took to Cloud 9.<br>

I'm doing...(fine)<br>

Up here. (On cloud nine)<br>

Listen one more time.<br>

I'm doing...(fine)<br>

Up here. (On cloud nine)<br>

<br>

Dennis:<br>

Folks now they tell me.<br>

They say, give yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by.<br>

But the world around you is a rat race.<br>

Where only the strong survive.<br>

It's a dog-eat-dog world and that ain't no lie. (Ain't no lie)<br>

Listen, it ain't even safe no more, to walk the streets at night.<br>

<br>

Eddie: I'm doing fine on Cloud 9.<br>

Dennis: Let me tell you about Cloud 9.<br>

<br>

(Cloud 9)Paul: You can be what you wanna be.<br>

(Cloud 9)Dennis: You ain't got no responsibility.<br>

(Cloud 9)Eddie: Every man, every man is free.<br>

(Cloud 9)Dennis: You're a million miles from reality.<br>

<br>

(Reality) I'm gonna sail (up, up) higher (up, up... up, up and away) Cloud 9.<br>

<br>

Eddie:<br>

I wanna say I love the life I live.<br>

And I'm gonna live the life I love.<br>

Up here on Cloud 9.<br>

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I'm riding high on Cloud 9.<br>

<br>

Dennis: You're as free as a bird in flight.<br>

(Cloud 9)Melvin: There's no diff'rence between day and night.<br>

(Cloud 9)Eddie: It's a world of love and harmony.<br>

(Cloud 9)Dennis: You're a million miles from reality.<br>

<br>

(Reality) I'm gonna sail (up, up) higher (up, up... up, up and away) Cloud 9.<br>

<br>

Paul: You can be what you wanna be.<br>

(Cloud 9)Dennis: You ain't got no responsibility.<br>

(Cloud 9)Eddie: Every man in his mind is free.<br>

(Cloud 9)Dennis: You're a million miles from reality.<br>

(Cloud 9)Paul: You can be what you wanna be.<br>

<br>

Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom...<br>

Eddie: I'm feeling fine on Cloud 9.<br>
