Head Held High - 2015 Remaster

My mama told me, ever since I was seven,
 Hold your head up high.
 My parents toldmy ever since I was eleven,
 "Hold your head up high."
 They said the answer was to become a dancer,
 Hold your head high.
 Oh, just like I figured, they're always disfigured
 With their heads up high.
 Now I'm older, I'm getting so much bolder
 With my head up high
 Oh, as I figured, just like I figured
 Since your head's up high, baby.
 Oh, just like I figured,
 You know, they was disfigured
 Hold your head up high.
 You know, they says the answer was to become a dancer
 Hold your head high, boy.

 Ever since I was a baby on my mama's knee,
 Oh, just listened to what everybody told me,
 Oh yes I did. But still the answer was to become a dancer,
 And hold your head high,
 But, just like I figured, they're always disfigured,
 They hold their heads up high, Watch out!
 Do the dog! Oh, watch out!
 ♪
 And now I'm older, they say I'm so much bolder
 Got your head up high.
 Oh, and the answer was, hey, to become a dancer,
 Head up high.
 Well, but just like I figured, they're always disfigured
 They got their heads up high.
 But the answer was, now, boy, to become a dancer
 With your head up high
 Head up high,
 Head up high...
