I stood at the bottom, deep in the blues
Looked up from the bottom at the sky’s fine hues
There was a ladder, so I put on my climbing shoes
My friend I am headed for fortune and fame
I’m up here suspended, playing the game
American dream, here I come once again
Ah ah ah ooh, it will come true
Ah ah ooh, what’s there to lose
One more move and I’ll be
Wait and see, front page news
Some day I’ll count the flattering crowd
Yes, I will make it, I’m well endowed
People say, that one there can be so proud
Yes I hold on, I try to refine
You see, I long for that victory sign
And I believe we’ll all be better in time
Ah ah ah ooh, it will come true
Ah ah ooh, what’s there to lose
One more move and I’ll be
Wait and see, front page news
My sights are fading, the mirror goes dull
Oh, fortunes are fickle, I’m back to null
You say I’m lucky as hell, didn’t bust my skull
My friend it’s me, I always want more
I’m out on high street spinning my lore
Can’t you see me getting off the floor
Ah ah ah ooh, it will come true
Ah ah ooh, what’s there to lose
One more move and I’ll be
Wait and see, front page news
