Lyrics for Song: There's Room At The Top
Lyrics for Album: The 70s Anthology [2002]
(B. Holland/H. Beatty/E. Holland)
In the ghetto, just the other day
I heard a mama turned to her son and say
Remember where you're going
Remember who you are
There's no way to accomplish it
And no distances too far
You gotta get on up (get on up)
Push a little harder
Educate your mind, get a little smarter
(Get a little smarter)
'Cause there's room (room) at the top (at the top)
It's only the bottom that's crowded out
(It's crowded out)
I said there's room way up at the top (at the top)
Just keep on climbing (room)
Don't you stop (don't you stop)
Times may be hard, the road may be narrow
But there's nothing you can do
When your eyes on the sparrow
So take the time that you've spend on crying
And use the same time and spend it on trying
(Got a problem) What problem?
(It's only in your mind)
There's a light (bright light)
Only you can make it shine
'Cause there's room (room) at the top (at the top)
It's only the bottom that's crowded out
(It's crowded out)
I said there's room (room) way at the top, y'all (at the top)
Just keep on climbing, oh
Don't you stop (don't you stop)
You just gotta
Get on up, push a little harder
Educate your mind, get a little smarter
(Get a little smarter)
'Cause there's room (room) at the top (at the top)
It's only the bottom that's crowded out
(Way up at the top)
I said there's room (room) at the top (at the top)
Just keep on climbing, ah, don't you stop
(It's crowded out)
Hey, clap your hands, sit and talk about it
Educate your mind while I'm talking
Whoa ohhh oh yeah
I wanna talk about it, I wanna talk about it, yeah
Baby, it's all up to you (room)
Nobody else can make your dreams come true
You gotta help yourself, you gotta help your yourself
You gotta keep on trying, you gotta
Keep on climbing, climbing, climbing
Ooh ooh ooh oooooh ooooh ooh ooh!
Children of today, leaders of tomorrow
Want to decide to be happy to dissolve the sorrow
(Talk to the people)
Before you turn to fight your problems
Remember the words (ohhh) from good loving mother
She say there's room at the top
There's room way up at the top
She say there's room at the top
Plenty of room at the top
You gotta keep on trying, you gotta keep on trying
Hey-ey-ey, heeeyyy!
Hey-ey-ey, heeeeeeyyyyyy, yeah!
(Room) plenty of room
(Room) what you say?
(Room) way up at the top
I said there's room (room) way at the top, y'all (room)
It's only the bottom that's crowded out
(Way up at the top)
Plenty of room (room) at the top (room)
Just keep on climbing, don't you stop
(It's crowded out)
Hey, hey, hey, yeah! (Room)
Oh yes, there is! (Room)
Keep on trying
you can make it, you can make it
'Cause there's room (room) at the top
It's only the bottom that's crowded out
I said there's room, plenty of room at the top, y'all
You gotta keep on climbing, don't you stop
Oh oh oh yeah
Oh ho oh yeah, yeah
