I been up, I been down, I been up
I been up, I been down, I been up
1
Living life out of a paper cup
sometimes I gotta wonder what's up
cause when life fills it to the rim
then I gotta decide whether to sink or swim
I been up, I been down, I been up
I been up, I been down, I been up
2
I been high in ecstasy
I felt the depths of misery
don't want nobody to interrupt me
the day I find out how to be free
I been up, I been down, I been up
I been up, I been down, I been up
take my cup, lift it up, and drink up
I been up, I been down, I been up
3
sometimes I cry, sometimes I laugh
yeah this day it might be my last
everybody knows anything can happen
when the future is the present
and the present the past
and if I keep my spirits up
sometimes and miracle can happen
and if we keep our spirits up
a miracle can happen
we been up, we been down, we been up
we been up, we been down, we been up
take our cup, lift it up, and drink up
we been up, we been down, we been up
deja vu all over and over
lost path in a jungle becomes a circle
when you think you recognize the experience
then you got to stop and smell, feel the essence
I been up, I been down, I been up, I been down,
I been down, I been out, here I go again
I been up, I been down, I been down, I been out,
I been up, I been down, and then I try again
I been up, I been down, I been up
I been up, I been down, I been up
take my cup, lift it up, and drink up
I been up, I been down, I been up
