Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher, higher, higher

Now I can tell your mother

Brought you up to be a brother

But now it's time to be a lover

And not just undercover

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher , higher, higher

Now you know I've got potential

Plus I'm very, very sensual

But instead of recognizing

You're always criticizing

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher, higher, higher

I make mistakes

Don't everyone?

That's just the breaks

For everyone there's a lesson to be learned

On the other side of the fence

And since you're such a doctor

And you got all the sense

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher, higher, higher

Now I can tell your mother

Brought you up to be a brother

But now it's time to be a lover

And not just undercover

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher

Don't bring me down, don't bring me down

Life me up higher , higher, higher
