Head Held High

Lyrics for Head Held High

My mama told me, ever since I was seven Hold your head up high My parents told my 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 boy (head up high) Oh, as I figured, just like I figured Since your head's up high, baby boy (head up high) Oh, just like I figured you know, they was disfigured Hold your head up high boy (head up high) You know, they says the answer was to become a dancer Hold your head high, boy (head up high) 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! Yeah Do the dog! Ooooh Watch out! And now I'm older, they say I'm so much bolder Got your head up high (head up high) Oh, and the answer was, hey, to become a dancer Head up high (head up high) Well, but just like I figured, they're always disfigured They got their heads up high (head up high) But the answer was, now, boy, to become a dancer With your head up high (head up high) Head, head high (hey, hey, hey-eh) Head, head high (hold it baby) Head, head high (oh hold it) Head, head high (oh baby yeah) Head, head high
