Jump Rope Lyrics
remember how you used to say
“you couldn’t wait till tomorrow for a brand new day” and
no fuss when you had to ride the bus
you just add a little blush
just to paralyze your school crush
now your older and the weight is on your shoulder
make the world a little colder
no more hiding in the old day
be strong
don’t you give up hope
it will get hard
life’s like a jump rope
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
cuz will get hard
remember life's like a jump rope
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
it will get hard
it will get hard
there’ll be a bump there will be a bruise
there’ll be alarms and there will be a snooze
there’ll be a path that you will have to choose
there’ll be a win and there will be a lose and
you gotta hold your head up high and
watch all the negative a-go by
don’t ever be ashamed to cry
you go ahead
cuz life’s like a jump rope
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
it will get hard
remember life's like a jump rope
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
it will get hard
come on-
I want to tell you that everything will be okay
that everything will eventually turn itself to gold
so keep pushing through it all
don’t follow, lead the way
don’t lose yourself or your hope
cuz life’s like a jump rope
(children)
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
you stomp your feet so hard
you make them pound
raise your fag up to the time
and now we're never coming down
up down
stomp your feet spin around
clap your hands to the rhythm
and you slip down
stomp your feet so hard
you make them pound
raise your fag up to the time
and now we're never coming down
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
it will get hard
remember life's like a jump rope
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
it will get hard
cuz it will get hard
(children)
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
Life's like a jump rope
up down
up down
up down
up down
yeah
whoa-ho
cuz life's like a jump rope
