Alexander O'Neal Every Time I Get Up song lyrics

There is something I just can't understand

Why do you bring me down just for being a man

I'm just trying to get my foot through the door

I get no E for effort, but one thing's for sure

CHORUS:

Every time I get up

You keep on bringing me down, down, down

Every time I get up

You keep en bringing me down, down, down

When I take two steps ahead, you bring me back

Why are you afraid at me and why is that

'Cause I won't let words destroy my dreams

I'm gonna keep on humping yeah, it you know what I mean

CHORUS:

You can't bring me down; I'll get up for another round

Because I'm a fighter, with a million dreams

Don't try to stop me; you can't bring me down, down, down
