| Lyrics: | My mama told me, ever since I was seven,
Hold your head up high.
My parents toldmy ever
since I was eleven,
Hold your head up high.
They said the answer was to become a
dancer,
Hold your head high.
Oh, just like I figured, they're always disfigured
With
their heads up high.
Now I'm older, I'm getting so much bolder
With my head up
high
Oh, as I figured, just like I figured
Since your head's up high, baby.
Oh, just
like I figured,
You know, they was disfigured
Hold your head up high.
You know, they
says the answer was to become a dancer
Hold your head high, boy.
Ever since I was a
baby on my mama's knee,
Oh, just listened to what everybody told me,
Oh yes I did. But
still the answer was to become a dancer,
And hold your head high,
But, just like I
figured, they're always disfigured,
They hold their heads up high, Watch out!
Do the
dog! Oh, watch out!
And now I'm older, they say I'm so much bolder
Got your head up
high.
Oh, and the answer was, hey, to become a dancer,
Head up high.
Well, but just
like I figured, they're always disfigured
They got their heads up high.
But the answer
was, now, boy, to become a dancer
With your head up high
Head up high,
Head up
high |
