One Way Up

Danny's got a job straight from nine to five

Saving all he earns for a better life

Friday he went out gambling hall

Laid it on the line and he blew it all

He used to call on his stream of luck

Just had the magic touch

He tried too hard and it all went wrong

It was a touch too much

Thunder, lightning what you wanna do

Giving up just halfway to the top

Thunder, lightning you can make it thorough

There's one way up

Lonely is the night

When you're down and out

Trying to find a way just to work it out

Just takes a man with a burning heart

Out in the cold of night

No use to cry and look back in tears

The time has come to fight

Thunder, lightning what you wanna do

Giving up just halfway to the top

Thunder, lightning you can make it thorough

There's one way up

Once you were tall and strong

But now these days are gone

You take it hard, it's plain to see

The tides of fate, they'll turn

One day you're back again

That's just the way it's got to be
