Straight To The Top (Rhumba)

Tom Waits

I'm going straight to the top 
oh yea up where the air is 
fresh and clean 
I'm going straight up to the top 
if you know me, you know what I mean 
I can't let sorrow 
try and pull ol' Frankie down 
live for tomorrow I have found you 
I'm going straight up to the top 
up where the air is fresh and clean 
i know that I will never stop, oh no 
until I know I'm wild and free 
just like a champagne bubble 
pop pop pop 
I'm like those birdies 
high up in the trees 
I can't let sorrow 
pull ol' Frankie down 
live for tomorrow 
I have found you 
I'm going straight up to the top oh yeah 
up where the air is fresh and clean
