Lyrics

(Gospel church clapping)

I'm running low (lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
Trying to make a hundred (lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

I'm running low (lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
Trying to make a hundred (lord I'm running trying to make a hundred)
Ninety-nine and a half just won't do

I'm praying loud (lord I'm praying trying to make a hundred)
Trying to make a hundred (lord I'm praying trying to make a hundred)
Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

I'm praying loud
Trying to make a hundred
Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

No it wont do (no no no it wont do)
It wont do (no no no it wont do)
Oh it wont do (no no no it wont do)
It wont do
It wont do
Just wont do
Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

And I'm counting now
You're a survivor
I'm just trying go further
I guess you wont help
You're left behind
Your half of the weight
Won't make the grade
You ain't moving
I'm grooving
Let me tell you
Ninety-one
Ninety-two
Ninety-three
Ninety-four
Ninety-five
Ninety-six
Ninety-seven
Ninety-eight
Ninety-nine and a half just wont do

You're a survivor
I'm just trying to go further
I'm gonna make a mile
Sure I'll try
Your half the weight
Won't make the grade
Are you moving?
See me I'm grooving
Let me tell you 91,92,93...
