[00:00.00]Cloud Nine - Gladys Knight/The Pips
[00:22.83]Childhood part of my life
[00:24.02]It wasn't very pretty
[00:26.08]I was born and raised in the slums of the city
[00:29.77]It was one room shack that
[00:30.89]Slept ten other children
[00:33.39]We hardly had enough food or room to sleep
[00:36.83]It was hard times
[00:39.33]Needed something to ease my trouble mind
[00:44.80]My father didn't know the meaning of work
[00:48.30]He disrespected mama and treated us like dirt
[00:52.19]I left home
[00:52.82]Seekin'a job that I never did find
[00:55.80]Depressed and downhearted I took to cloud nine
[00:59.05]I'm doin'fine up here on cloud nine

[01:14.80]Give yourself a chance son
[01:15.61]Don't let life pass you by
[01:17.92]But the world of reality is a rat race
[01:19.61]Where only the strongest survive
[01:21.55]It a dog eat dog world
[01:23.18]And that ain't no lie
[01:25.65]Listen no more

[02:08.98]And I'm gonna live the life I love
[02:12.80]Up here on cloud nine
[02:21.46]On cloud nine
