Big dog got the bone
buried in the yard as he goes
fat cat tries to roam
up on that big dog in his side
for the sweet up and down

Know is what you want
go out there and take it, we're taught
no one in your way
I've a thought that maybe we all suffer
sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
oh no, I just jam
on the sweet up and down

I would have to pay
I've no time to play on your game
I know what I said
I'm not fucking 'round with your jab
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
oh no, God forbid
on the sweet up and down

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm gonna long as you give
I'm gonna love you in order
in order or hand out
I'm gonna take out your babies
I mean from your life
to get all that I want
from the sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it's love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
oh, don't put your hand
in the sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it's love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
oh, oh, yes, you, yeah

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I won't let you down
I won't fuck it up
I'm a real man, yeah
I'm your
Sweet Up and Down
main lyrics
[scatting]

Big dog bites the bone
life's too short to take all this
not true, and what's more
life's too short to mind, just keep on
with the sweet up and down

Unturning her cheek
inside out, her meek little bones
dirty little girl
climbs out of the hole in her own
little sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down

[scatting]

Piggy turns to me
piggy needs to eat like us all
not far from the beast
man sits down to feast on this part
of the sweet up and down

I believe in love
and believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down
B.T.

Up and down, inside out
outside in some, you lose some you win for us all
up and down we go
bad times choke us all or twice
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but say nothing about it when you're not around
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down
yeah, yeah
