Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Mommy, daddy, come and look at me now

I'm a big man in a great big town

Years ago who would believe it's true

Goes to show what a little faith can do

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps

I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

[Verse 2]

I slipped and I got pulled

Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled

You pulled me up

I slipped and I got pulled

Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled

You pulled me up, pull me up, pull me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

[Verse 3]

I drift away to another land

Sleeping, dreaming, such a simple thing

I think of things that I might be

I see my name go down in history

[Verse 4]

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps

I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

[Verse 5]

I slipped and I got pulled

Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled

You pulled me up

I tripped and I got pulled

Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled

You pulled me up, pulled me up, up, pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

[Verse 6]

I got up

You pulled me up

I stood up

You pulled me up

I got up

And that was because you pulled me up

I got up

In a little while you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

[Verse 7]

Cast a shadow on the living room wall

Dark and savage with a profile so sharp

Deep and wonderful, food on the table

There's really no hurry, I'll eat in a while!

[Verse 8]

I was complaining, I was down in the dumps

I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

[Verse 9]

I slipped and I got pulled

Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled

You pulled me up

I slipped and I got pulled, pulled up

I slipped and then you pulled, you pulled me up

Pull me up, pull me up, watch out!

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!

Pulled me up, up, up, up, up, up, up, up!
