Jump (the velvet rope)

Jump (the velvet rope) Lyrics

Music & Lyrics by We3Kings (Seven, Walter Brandt, Bill Brandt)

Some people get lucky
Born with a silver spoon
Other people got to work real hard
A whole life of paying dues
One man got a big old house
Fast car and swimming pool
Another man got a big old wife
Ten kids and one bathroom

PRE-CHORUS

Sometimes
We're just stuck
Behind
The velvet rope (x2)

CHORUS

You gotta jump up so high
Jump up jump over the rope
You gotta jump up so high
Jump up jump the rope

Some people get lucky
Take a chance to strike it rich
Other people will they bet it all lose
Ain't life a b**ch
One man's on the guest list
Arrives in a limousine
Another man got to stand on line
Outside in the pouring rain

BRIDGE

We got the world on a string
Wrapped around our fingers
We got everything we need
We don't need a thing
There ain't no rope that can hold us
Nothing keeps us down
There ain't a rope that can bind us
We're gonna jump up off the ground
