And when you see Steve doing his thing

We're on a positive track today
Well, it's a positive track not trail

Nothing they do can keep us down, people move
Nothing they say can stop this crowd
Nothing they do can keep us down, people move
Nothing they say can stop this crowd
We rejoice in good times

So no matter what's going down

Face no bend up like no soldier
Smile for teh gal, them make she feel irie
Nuff niceness in a the ras party born fi irie
Keep yourself high

You're born to be lively, you're born to be lively

Sharon's born to be lively, she's born to be lively
So when you see Ciddy doing, Ciddy's doing her thing
That's why she was born
And when you see Sharon, Sharon's doing that thing
That's why she was born
We're on a positive track today
Well, it's a positive track not trail
We're on a positive track today

Life off your tam and fly you natty
Show me all the lady who is hotty hotty

Keep yourself high, keep yourself up

Keep yourself high, keep yourself up

Born to be lively, we're born to be lively
Said, I'm having fun
You're born to be lively, you're born to be lively
Everyone having fun
