Right Side Up Lyrics - Van Zant

It was a bad day in the mirror 

There I stood the livin' dead 

When I saw the face so familiar 

Hoverin' like a voice over my head 

It took me back to that October 

I was playing to the crowd 

I was suddenly stone cold sober 

When I heard a voice calling out loud 

He said... 

Boy you're headed down the road that leads nowhere 

There's only one direction you can turn, only love can take 

you there 

Right Side Up 

Feel it from the inside 

Hot side out 

When you're on the downslide 

Don't be afraid 

Of prayin to love 

Hot side out, or Right side up 

Well I ain't here to preach no sermon 

But for me it was the truth 

When the wind would crack and the thunder roared 

Lord I thought that I was bulletproof 

I was headed down the road to nowhere 

There's only one direction you can turn, only love can take 

you there 

Right Side Up 

Feel it from the inside 

Hot side out 

When you're on the downslide 

Round and round 

Down and out 

Don't tell me that's what you're all about 

Right Side Up 

Feel it in your heartbeat 

Don't back down 

Walking down the right street 

Don't be afraid 

Of prayin to love 

Hot side out, or Right side up 

Once you get straight, you're headed in the right direction 

You can see it clearly for the first time 

Think you finally got the right side up 

Oh things are looking up 

I was headed down the road to nowhere 

There's only one direction you can turn, only love can take 

you 

Love can take you 

Love can take you there 

(Right Side Up) 

Feel it from the inside 

(Hot side out) 

When you're on the downslide 

Round and round 

Down and out 

Don't tell me that's what you're all about 

Right Side Up 

Feel it in your heartbeat 

Don't back down 

Walking down the right street 

Don't be afraid 

Of prayin to love 

Hot side out, or Right side up 

Oh right side up 

(Feel it in your heartbeat) 

Right side up 

(Walking down the right street) 

Right side up 

Oh right side up 

Right side up 

Right side up 

Right side up 

Right side up 

Right side up 

Right side up
