Right Me Up

And oh, this friend today, right me up
And oh, this friend today, right me up
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
(Bottle, not empty)

(Not so weak)

Till we be up again, havin' another swing
And oh, this friend today, right me up
And oh, this friend today, right me up
You know it gettin' pretty cold out
And oh, this friend today, right me up
(Right me up)

Manny, we gonna get that a.m. dial just right
But he the one who bring
And oh, this friend today, right me up
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?

And oh, this friend today, right me up
(Right me up)
By the jub jub swing
And oh, this friend today, right me up
I'm not so weak
(You know I'm not so weak)
And oh, this friend today, right me up

And oh, this friend today, right me up
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
You know it gettin' pretty cold

(The bottle, not empty)
And oh, this friend today, right me up
'Cause your voices are all there

Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
(Not so weak)

My life will fight in my body for air
(Right me up)
(You know I'm not so weak)
And Manny wasn't doin' nothin'
(Right me up)

Waitin' on, waitin' on the day
Manny don't need no comfortin'
(My life will fight)
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?

'Cause your voices are all there
He just doin' his own thing
Ain't gonna see him waitin' on

(Right me up)
And he bring me up, ain't gonna see him
And oh, this friend today, right me up
'Cause the bottle was not empty
'Cause they may beat us in search
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
I'm not so weak
He gonna roll down the world
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
You know he says, it won't be long
He just doin' his own thing

My life will fight in my body for air
(Right me up)
Givin' into the others way
And oh, this friend today, right me up
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
Why sue me? Why?
And oh, this friend today, right me up

Got him a chair in '73
He don't ask of the world to bring him up
Same chair he has today
And Manny wasn't doin' nothin'
And oh, this friend today, right me up, I'm not so
Manny gonna go where the rabble go
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
Since they threw the cane away
'Cause the bottle was not empty
And oh, this friend today, right me up
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?

It was his only option, so Manny agreed
I'm not so weak
(My life will fight)

But our fall is unstained
Why sue me? Why sue me? Why?
