Stayin' Alive

(album: Other Shores - 2022)

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a man's woman, no time to talk
The music loud, the women warm
I've been kicked around since I been born

And now it's alright, it's okay
You may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man

'Cause whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
We're staying alive, staying alive
Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking
We're staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, staying alive

You know, I get low and I get high
And if I can't get either, I still try
Got the wings of Heaven on my shoes
I'm a dancing girl, I just can't lose

But now it's alright, it's okay
We'll live to see another day
You can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man

'Cause whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
We're staying alive, staying alive
Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking
We're staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, staying alive

Life's going nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah

Life's going nowhere
Somebody help me, yeah

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a man's woman, no time to talk
The music loud, the women warm
I've been kicked around since I been born
But now it's all right, it's okay
You may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man

'Cause whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
We're staying alive, staying alive
Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking
We're staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, staying alive, staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, we're staying alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, we're staying alive
We're staying alive
We're staying alive
