Lively Up Yourself Lyrics
Lively up yourself and don't be no drag
Lively up yourself, 'cause this is the other bag
Hey, lively up yourself and don't be no drag
You lively up yourself, dig it, the other bag
Hey, you rock so, you rock so, like you never did before
You dip so, you dip so, and you can dip thru my door
You come so, you come so, oh yeah, like I do adore you
You skank so, you skank so, and-a I can assure you
You can lively up yourself and don't be no drag
Hey, you lively up yourself, can you dig it?
Hey (you rock so, you rock so), like you never did before
You dip so, you dip so, can you dig it?
You lively up yourself and don't be no drag
You lively up yourself, 'cause this is the other bag
Hey, lively up yourself
Lively up yourself, other bag
Can you dig it? Can you dig it? ...
Lively up yourself, 'cause this is the other bag
Hey, lively up yourself and don't be no drag
You lively up yourself, dig it, the other bag
You dip so, you dip so, and you can dip thru my door
You come so, you come so, oh yeah, like I do adore you
You skank so, you skank so, and-a I can assure you
Hey, you lively up yourself, can you dig it?
You dip so, you dip so, can you dig it?
You lively up yourself, 'cause this is the other bag
Hey, lively up yourself
Can you dig it? Can you dig it? ...

it makes me feel happy when ever I listen to it , I like the version he sung in concert 76 in london I think in rainbow hall,,,wearing blue jeans

The meaning of this song is summed up by the first line: "Lively up yourself and don't be no drag" - it means that when you are out and around other people, you have to look at yourself the way others do. If you're bummed or a negative person, then others are going to pick up on that vibe and then not want to be around you. So, liven up your spirit, your personality...make it more positive, upbeat and people will want to be around you. If you are negative, in a bad mood, bummed, whatever...you're going to be viewed as 'a drag,' and no one is going to want to be in your presence.
@FeelingGood40 Thanks for clearing it up for me man. As not a native speaker I had no idea what is it about. Now I get the point
