Helen Reddy Lyrics
"Let's Go Up"

Comin' back on, comin' back strong
Turnin' back on
Takin' the heat out in the street
Baby, too long

Can you tell me how much fire
Will it take to get us higher?

Hearin' the news, singin' the blues
You gotta choose
Stand up and fight, do it tonight
What can you lose

In a world of fading treasure
Love is the greatest pleasure

So let's go up, forget about down
'Cause in this town it's gonna get rough
And what goes down is up to us
So let's go up, let's go up

When it gets hot, like it or not
You want to run

Though it's so warm here in my arms
You won't get burned

In a world of fading treasures
The pleasure of your treasures cannot be measured

Up
Forget about down
'Cause in this town it's gonna get rough
And what goes down is up to us
So let's go up, baby, let's go up

Ooh, I can't free a person from their chains
But I'll tell you this for sure
If nothing is ventured
Then nothing is gained

So let's go up, forget about down
'Cause in this town it's gonna get rough
And what goes down is up to us
So let's go up, let's go up
