Head Held High Songtext
von The Feelies

Mama told me when I was seven
Hold your head up high
My parents told me ever since I was 11
Hold your head up high

They said the answer was to become a dancer
Hold your head up high
And just like I figured, always disfigured
Got your head up high

And I′m older, I'm feeling so much bolder
Got my head up high (head held high)
Just like I figured, just like I figured
Got my head up high (head held high)

Just like I figured, they were always disfigured
Got my head up high (head held high)
They said the answer was become a dancer
Hold your head up high (head held high)


Ever since I was a baby on my mama′s knee
Never listened to what anybody got to tell me

They said the answer was to become a dancer
Hold your head up high
Just like I figured, they're always disfigured
Hold your head up high

I am older and I'm feeling so much bolder
With my head up high (head held high)
Just like I figured, they′re always disfigured
They got their heads up high (head held high)

Just like I figured then, become a dancer
With your head up high (head held high)
They said the answer was become a dancer
With your head up high (head held high)

Head held high
Head held high
Head held high
Head held high

Thank you
