JUMP
Dust Legacy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I get up, and nothing gets me down.
you got it tough. i've seen the toughest around.
and i know, baby, just how you feel.
you've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real
Oh can't you see me standing here,
i've got my back against the record machine
i ain't the worst that you've seen.
oh can't you see what i mean?
Might as well jump. jump!
might as well jump.
go ahead, jump. jump!
go ahead, jump.
Aaa-ohh hey you! how said that?
baby how you been?
you say you don't know, you won't know
until we begin.
Well can't you see me standing here,
i've got my back against the record machine
i ain't the worst that you've seen.
oh can't you see what i mean?
Might as well jump. jump!
go ahead, jump.
might as well jump. jump!
go ahead, jump.
(guitar solo)
(keyboard solo)
Might as well jump. jump!
go ahead, jump.




get it and jump. jump!
go ahead, jump.
