[Verse 1]
Sittin' in the back of an H3 humvee
Drivin' fast down West 85th Street
He's so insane when he's got something for me

I look up at the big, big sky
Like a child, got that fire in my eye
When I get it, yeah, it's alright
Nothing can stop me now
[Chorus]
Hold onto your world, you're a west side girl
Top of the world, you have it so, have it so
Hold onto your world, you're a west side girl
Top of the world, you have it so, have it so
Good, good
So good, good
[Verse 2]
You say I made a big mistake
Went to a place I knew was safe
Nothing I could do but take it away
But you still look at me that way
It's gettin' kinda mundane with me
You've gotta have something for me
It's gettin' kinda mundane with me
You've gotta have something for me
[Chorus]
Hold onto your world, you're a west side girl
Top of the world, you have it so, have it so
Hold onto your world, you're a west side girl
Top of the world, you have it so, have it so
Good, good
So good, good
[Bridge]
I look up at the big, big sky
Like a child, got that fire in my eye
I look up at the big, big sky
Nothing can stop me now
[Chorus]
Hold onto your world, you're a west side girl
Top of the world, you have it so, have it so
Hold onto your world, you're a west side girl
Top of the world, you have it so, have it so
Good, good
So good, good
