You lift me up. you bring me down
You make our whole world go around
We put our time and faith in you
We may waver, but you never do
You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You take no credit and you take no blame
So lift me up, and bring me down
Drop the needle, spin the record around

Meet up with the boys in the morning
We're headed down to Skippy White's
I'm gonna hang out at Simco's
I might have a hot dog, I might have a fight
When you find your prize you better hold on tight
I got mine today, a new single called "Rapper's Delight"

We put our time and faith in you
We may waver, but you never do

You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You take no credit and you take no blame
You lift me up, you bring me down
Drop the needle, spin the record around
Drop the needle, spin the record around

Let's take the trolley to Ashmont
Hop on the Red Line, me and the gang
I'm gonna spend my last three bucks
On a Minor Threat single at Taang!
Sometimes you gotta look hard
To see what you can find
You gotta dig real deep for the good stuff
The good stuff that keeps us alive

We put our time and faith in you
We may waver, but you never do

You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You take no credit and you take no blame
You lift me up, you bring me down
Drop the needle, spin the record around
Drop the needle, spin the record around

You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You take no credit, you take no blame
You take no credit, you take no blame
You lift me up, you bring me down
You lift me up, you bring me down
Drop the needle, spin the record around
Drop the needle, spin the record around

You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You take no credit and you take no blame
So lift me up, and bring me down
Drop the needle, spin the record around
You're good as gold, you're right as rain
You take no credit and you take no blame
So lift me up, and bring me down
Drop the needle, spin the record around
Drop the needle, spin the record around
