I had a little trouble in the home town Things got funky so I had to leave - right away So I went to the city on the bus (?) Haaaa But trouble had a way of finding me
And now I think I know Which way is up I find got my direction together Which way is up Hooo! Don't need no love, it changes like the weather Which way is up Haaaa, don't have to think about it twice Which way is up I got a new lease on life
Wait a minute, I wanna say My whole world was upside down I tell ya Everybody waiting to get my feet back on the ground I searched and searched but what did I find That things got so dog-gone bad that I almost lost my mind
Now I think I know Which way is up I finally got my direction together Which way is up Coz I know just where I'm going Which way is up I don't have to think about it twice Which way is up I got a new outlook on life
(Yeah, uh-huh, etc) Get funky now Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa Aw, break it on down Break it down to the ground, y'all Ya got the feeling Break it down to the ground, y'all
Which way is up Which way is up Which way is up Which way is up
