[Verse 1]
You got to the top the hard way
You pushed a lot of people around
But you got what you wanted now
So baby, don't look down

[Chorus]
Baby, don't look down
Any fool could see you really shook up this town
But your time will come someday
You're gonna fall a long, long way
So baby, don't look down, no, no
Don't look down

[Verse 2]
You hurt a lot of people
For getting up to where you are
You forgot the one who loves you
But you've done alright so far

[Chorus]
So baby, don't look down, please
It's been a long, long way to the cold, cold ground
Come time to pay your dues
It's gonna be real bad news
So baby, don't look down, oh no
Don't look down
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
So now you think you're happy
And a smile lights up your face
But remember what I told you, boy
The top's a mighty lonesome place

[Chorus]
So baby, don't look down
You left a lot of broken hearts all around
You're gonna pay for all you've done
And it sure won't be much fun
So baby, don't look down, uh-uh
Don't look down

[Outro]
Oh baby, don't look down, not now
Don't look down
Baby, don't look down, not now
Don't look down
You on the top now
So baby, don't look down
Please, don't look down, no, no
