Nobody told you you were gonna go far
Maybe make a living, get a house with a yard
A big timer, you're a big timer
wouldn't ya know
Na Na Na
You talk it up, get 'em up off their knees
then cut 'em down to size, saying "Ain't nothing free"
A Big timer, you're a big timer
Wouldn't ya know
Now tell 'em what you do
Keep your head up
gonna get it tonight
kick it over and over
well you're on, on your own son
Head up
Gonna get myself rich
Maybe find a new girl
What else can you do
You come around, we've got little to say
Nothing seems to matter but a year and a day
Here's a dimer, you no account grimer
Wouldn't I know
Na, Na NA
I bet my money, tell me who's gonna win
When they drop you in the ocean, you 'gon learn how to swim
A big timer, you're a big timer
and everyone knows
now tell 'em what you do
Keep your head up
gonna get it tonight
kick it over and over
well you're on, on your own son
Head up
Gonna get myself rich
Maybe find a new girl
What else can you do
I'll see ya round if we're older someday
Then, we'll walk on by
Give a nod and a wave
A big climber
With the old timers
alone at the bar
Keep your head up
gonna get it tonight
kick it over and over
well you're on, on your own son
Head up
Gonna get myself rich
Maybe find a new girl
It's like flipping a switch oh
Head up
It's gonna happen tonight
See your name in some lights
Well, oh, oh
you know...
Keep your head up
Keep your head up
Keep your head up
What else can you do
