Childhood part of my life wasn't that good
I was born and raised in the slums of a city
It was a one room shack slept in a little terry dinning
We hardly had enough food to go to sleep
It was hard times
I needed something to keep my troubled mind
Yeah, but hoo listen
Said my father didn't know the meaning of work
He disrespected mama and treated her like dirt
Said I left home seeking a job that I never did find
Depression down hard and I took to my mind
And I'm doin' fine (I'm doin' fine)
On cloud nine
Listen, one more time
I'm doin' fine (I'm doin' fine)
On cloud nine
Folks tryin' to tell me
Give yourself a chance and don't let life pass you by
Give the devil hell
I'm in the right place, my only goal survive
Y'all he done well that ain't no lie (ain't no lie)
He ain't even say so much
So I can take the night
And I'm doin' fine (I'm doin' fine)
On cloud nine
Wait a minute, wait a minute
Everybody say yeah (yeah)
Say yeah (yeah, yeah)
Say yeah (yeah, yeah)
