Cloud Nine [In the Style of Temptations] (Karaoke Lead Vocal Demo) - Backtrack Professional Karaoke Band

You see

The childhood part of my life wasn't very pretty

You see I was born and raised in the slums of the city

It was a one room shack we slept in

Other children beside me

We hardly had enough food or room to sleep

It was a hard times needed something

To ease my troubled mind

Ooo listen

My father didn't know the meaning of work

He disrespected Mama and treated us like dirt

I left home seekin' a job that I never did find

Depressed and down-hearted I took to Cloud 9

I'm doing (fine)

Up here (On cloud nine)

Listen one more time

I'm doing (fine)

Up here (On cloud nine)

Folks now they tell me

They say give yourself a chance

And don't let life pass you by

But the world around you is a rat race

Where only the strong 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 9

Let me tell you about Cloud 9

You can be what you wanna be

You ain't got no responsibility

Every man every man is free

You're a million miles from reality

(Reality) I'm gonna sail (up up) higher

(up up up up and away) Cloud 9

I wanna say I love the life I live

And I'm gonna live the life I love

Up here on Cloud 9

Uh uh uh uh uh I'm riding high on Cloud 9

You're as free as a bird in flight

(Cloud 9)Melvin: There's no diff'rence

Between day and night

It's a world of love and harmony

You're a million miles from reality

(Reality) I'm gonna sail (up up) higher

(up up up up and away) Cloud 9

You can be what you wanna be

You ain't got no responsibility

Every man in his mind is free

You're a million miles from reality

You can be what you wanna be
