High Hopes

Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
 Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes
 Mama said
 Fulfill the prophecy
 Be something greater
 Go make a legacy
 Manifest destiny
 Back in the days
 We wanted everything, wanted everything
 Mama said
 Burn your biographies
 Rewrite your history
 Light up your wildest dreams
 Museum victories, everyday
 We wanted everything, wanted everything
 Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated
 All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
 Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes
 Mama said
 It's uphill for oddities
 The stranger crusaders
 Ain't ever wannabes
 The weird and the novelties
 Don't ever change
 We wanted everything, wanted everything
 Stay up on that rise
 Stay up on that rise and never come down (oh)
 Stay up on that rise
 Stay up on that rise and never come down
 Mama said don't give up it's a little complicated
 All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting
 They say it's all been done but they haven't seen the best of me
 So I got one more run and it's gonna be a sight to see
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
 Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
 Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes
