The childhood part of my life
Wasn't very pretty
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)

See, I was born and raised
In the slums of the city
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
It was a one-room shack
That slept ten other children beside me
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
We hardly enough food
Or room to sleep
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
It was hard times, needed somethin'
To ease my troubled mind
Ooh, listen

It was hard times, needed somethin'
To ease my troubled mind
Ooh, listen
My father didn't know the meaning of work
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
He disrespected mama
And treated us like dirt
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
I left home seeking a job
That I never did find
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
Depressed and down-hearted
I took to cloud nine
(Boom, boom-boom, boom)
I'm doing fine up here, on cloud nine
Listen, one more time
I'm doing fine up here, on cloud nine
Folks down there tell me
They say give yourself a chance, son
Don't let life pass you by
(Woo, woo, woo-oo)
But the world, around you, is a rat race
Where only the strongest survive
It's a dog-eat-dog world
And that ain't no lie
(Ain't no lie)
Listen, it ain't even safe no more
To walk the streets at night
I'm doing fine, on cloud nine
Let me tell you 'bout cloud nine
(Cloud nine)
You can be what you want to be
(Cloud nine)
You ain't got no responsibility
(Cloud nine)
And every man, every man is free
(Cloud nine)
And you're a million miles from reality, reality
I wanna' stay up higher
Up up, up and away, cloud nine
I wanna' say I love the life I live
And I'm going to live, the life I love
Or be on cloud nine
I, I, I, I, I, I'm ridin' high on cloud nine
You're as free as a bird in flight
(Cloud nine)
There's no difference between day and night
(Cloud nine)
It's a world of love and harmony
(Cloud nine)
You're a million miles from reality, reality
I wanna' stay up higher
Up up, up and away, cloud nine
You can be what you want to be, ah
(Cloud nine)
You ain't got no responsibility
(Cloud nine)
Every man in his mind is free
(Cloud nine)
You're a million miles from reality
(Cloud nine)
You can be what you want to be
Boom boom boom
