Lyrics of Stayin' Alive (From "Saturday Night Fever" Soundtrack) by Bee Gees

verse

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I′m a woman's man, no time to talk
The music loud and the women warm
I′ve been kicked around since I was born

pre-chorus

Well, now it's alright, that's okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times′ effect on man

chorus

Whether you′re a brother or whether you're a mother
You′re stayin' alive, stayin′ alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin′
And we're stayin' alive, stayin′ alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin′ alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin′ alive
Help me, woman

verse

Well now, I get low and I get high
And if I can't get either, I really try
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes
I′m a dancing man and I just can't lose

pre-chorus

You know it′s alright, it's okay
I'll live to see another day
We can try to understand
The New York Times′ effect on man

chorus

Whether you′re a brother or whether you're a mother
You′re stayin' alive, stayin′ alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin′
And we're stayin' alive, stayin′ alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin′ alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin′ alive

verse

Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin′ nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin′ alive
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk
Music loud and the women warm
I′ve been kicked around since I was born

pre-chorus

And now it′s all right, it's okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times′ effect on man

chorus

Whether you're a brother or whether you′re a mother
You're stayin′ alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin′
And we′re stayin' alive, stayin′ alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin′ alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

verse

Life goin′ nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin′ alive
Life goin′ nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I′m stayin' alive
Life goin′ nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I′m stayin' alive

outro

Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah

verse

Life goin′ nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I′m stayin' alive
