Right Me Up

Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many, why? Why so many, why so many, why? Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why?

Manny don't need no comforting

He don't ask of the world to bring him up

Ain't gonna see him waitin' on waitin' on waitin' on the day

Got him a chair in '73

It was his only option

So Manny agreed

Same chair he has today since they threw the cane away

And Manny wasn't doing nothing

He just doing his own thing

You know it getting pretty cold out by the jub jub swing

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

I'm not so weak

Manny gonna go where the rabble go

He gonna roll down the world and he bring me up

Ain't going to see him giving into the others way

Cause they may beat us in search but our fall is unstained

You know he says it won't be long till we are up again

Having another swing

And Manny wasn't doing nothing

He just doing his own thing

Yah know it gettin' pretty cold but he the one who bring

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

No, I'm not so weak

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

I'm not so weak

'Cause the bottles not empty

'Cause your voices are all there

My life will fight in my body for air

'Cause the bottle's not empty

'Cause your voices are all there

My life will fight in my body for air

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

And oh this friend today

Right me up

And oh this friend today

Right me up

I'm not so

And oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

No, I'm not so weak

Oh this friend today

Right me up

Oh this friend today

Right me up

I'm not so weak

Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many why?

Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many why?

Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why so many why?

Why so many, why so many why? Why so many, why?

Manny we gonna get that A.M. dial just right

I'll hold that hanger up as long as the Sox put up a fight
