The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everybody got somebody
Trying to make you feel real bad
Aint' none of their business
Talking behind your back
Be strong in yourself
Stand up - walk away
Nobody gives a damn for a
Single thing you say
I'm singing
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Here comes the thunder
Hide money in your pocket
Be nobody's fool
Always think of number one
That's my golden rule
Take care of business
Go for it with the best
Be strong enough to take it
Ain't no need to rest
I'm singing
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Watch out for the thunder
Bad times make you cry
But the good times get you high
I can't stand it
I can't stand it no more
Somebody, everybody
Trying to make you feel real bad
Aint' nobody's business
Talking behind your back
Be strong in yourself
Stand up - walk away
Nobody's gonna listen
To a single word you say
Stay on top - never go under
Lightning strikes
Before you hear the thunder
Stay on top - never go under
Hold on tight
Look out for the thunder
Stay on top
You've got to stay on top
Stand up and sing it
Stay on top
Take care of business
Stay on top
