[SC]  Life was lookin’ up, till you put me down.

I was climbin’ up, till you shot me down.

Now I’m givin’ up, ‘cause you got me down.

Baby, I’m downright uptight, ‘cause of you.

[SG]  I was lookin’ up.  Couldn’t get me down.

[SG]  Happy as a pup.  Never wore a frown.

[IC]  First you wound me up, then you ground me down.

[SC]  Baby, I’m downright uptight, thanks to you.

[MH]  I was really standin' tall,

Smilin' all the time.

[JA]  Then you went and made that call.

[SC]  Wish you’d saved your dime.

[DG]  I was lookin’ up, till you put me down.

I was climbin’ up, till you flagged me down.

[SC]  Now I’m givin’ up, ‘cause you dragged me down.

Baby, I’m downright uptight, ‘cause of you.

Downright uptight.  Downright uptight.

Downright uptight, ‘cause of you.
