You can catch up with the low down
It's gettin' hot, take the heat
But somehow we're gettin' over now
Gettin' over, yeah, baby
Everybody's tryin'
You'll get over, yeah
Everybody's gettin' over
On the mark, are you ready?
'Cause I am, baby, to get over
Gettin' over
Go for it all, you've got nothin' to lose
Just try to break through
Pull out the stop reach for the top
And I'll bet you, you'll get over too
Gettin' over
Everybody's tryin'
You'll get over
Everybody's gettin' over
On the mark, are you ready?
'Cause I am, baby, to get over
Gettin' over
Go for it all, you've got nothin' to lose
Just try to break on through
Pull out the stop and reach for the top
And I'll bet you, you'll get over too
On the mark, are you ready?
'Cause I am, baby, to get over
Getting' over
Gettin' over, well, I have no doubt
That's what believin' is all about
Gettin' over, reachin' for the top
Dreamin', pullin' out all the stop
Gettin' over, gettin' over
Gettin' over, well, I have no doubt
That's what happenin' in the streets
Gettin' over, reachin' for the top
Though it's hard to take the lead
Gettin' over, gettin' over
Gettin' over
Gettin' Over
