[JANE]
Whoa
Another day
I’ll take your pain away
Some people talk about you
Like they know all about you
When you get down they doubt you
And when you tipping on the scene
Yeah they talkin’ about it
Cause they can’t tip all on the scene with you talkin’ about it
T-t-t-talkin’ about it
When you get elevated
They love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
While they jumpin’ round you
They trying to take all your dreams
But you can’t allow it
[JANE & (THE WARBLERS)]
Cause, baby, whether you’re high or low
Whether you’re high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
T-t-t-tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
Baby, baby, whether you’re high or low (High or low)
Baby, whether you’re high or low (High or low)
You got to tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
Now let me see you do the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
And I’m still tippin’ on it
[JANE]
See I’m not walkin’ on it
Or trying to run around it
This ain’t no acrobatics
You either follow or you lead, yeah
I’m talkin’ about you
I’ll keep on blaming the machine, yeah
I’m talkin’ about it
T-t-t-talkin’ about it
I can’t complain about it
I gotta keep my balance
And just keep dancing on it
We getting funky on the scene
Yeah you know about it
Like a star on the screen
Watch me tip all on it
[JANE & (THE WARBLERS)]
Then, baby, whether I’m high or low (High or low)
Baby, whether you’re high or low (High or low)
You gotta tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
Yeah, tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)

Baby, whether you’re high or low (High or low)

Baby let me see you tight rope (Tip, tip on it)
And I’m still tippin’ on it
[JANE with THE WARBLERS]
I tip on alligators
And little rattle snakers
But I’m another flavor
Something like a terminator
Ain’t no equivocating
I fight for what I believe
Why you talkin’ about it
Sh-sh-she’s talkin’ about it
Some calling me a sinner
Some calling me a winner
I’m calling you to dinner
Hey, you know exactly what I mean
Yeah I’m talking about you
You can rock or you can leave
Watch me tip without you
[JANE & (THE WARBLERS)]
Now-now-now whether I’m high or low (High or low)
Whether I’m high or low (High or low)

Vertaling
[JANE]
Whoa
Nog een dag
Ik zal je pijn wegnemen
Sommige mensen praten over jou
Alsof ze alles van je weten
Als je down bent twijfelen ze aan je
And when you tipping on the scene
Yeah they talkin’ about it
Want ze kunnen geen fooi geven als jij er over praat
T-t-t-t-t-talkin’ about it
When you get elevated
They love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
While they jumpin’ round you
They trying to take all your dreams
But you can’t allow it
[JANE & (THE WARBLERS)]
Cause, baby, whether you’re high or low
Whether you’re high or low
You got to tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)

Baby, baby, whether you’re high or low (Hoog of laag)
Baby, whether you’re high or low (Hoog of laag)
You got to tip on the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
Now let me see you do the tightrope (Tip, tip on it)
And I’m still tippin’ on it
[JANE]
Zie je ik loop er niet op
Of probeer er omheen te rennen
Dit is geen acrobatiek
Je volgt of je leidt, ja
I’m talkin’ about you
Ik blijf de machine de schuld geven, ja
I’m talkin’ about it
T-t-t-t-talkin’ about it
Ik kan er niet over klagen
I gotta keep my balance
And just keep dancing on it
We getting funky on the scene
Yeah you know about it
Like a star on the screen
Watch me tip all on it

And I’m still tippin’ on it
[JANE MET DE WARBLERS]
I tip on alligators
And little rattle snakers
But I’m another flavor
Zoiets als een terminator
Er is geen twijfel mogelijk
Ik vecht voor wat ik geloof
Waarom praat je erover?
Sh-sh-she’s talkin’ about it
Sommigen noemen me een zondaar
Sommigen noemen me een winnaar
Ik roep je te eten
Hé, je weet precies wat ik bedoel
Ja, ik heb het over jou
Je kan rocken of je kan vertrekken
Kijk hoe ik fooi geef zonder jou
[JANE & (THE WARBLERS)]
