Flying High |
| I’m stuck on the L.A. freeway |
| Got rain water in my boots |
| My thumbs done froze, can’t feel my toes |
| I feel a little destitute |
| Wheels throwing water all over my axe |
| And Mr. Jones won’t lend me a hand |
| Up come two cats in a Cadillac |
| And they say: 'Won't you hop in, man?' |
| I went flying high all the way, all the way. |
| The one that’s driving’s got a bowler hat |
| The other’s got a fez on his head |
| They turn around and grin and I grin back |
| But not a word was said |
| So I took out my harp and I played 'em a tune |
| I could see they were diggin' it |
| Then the one with the fez, well he turns and he says |
| 'We'd like to help you make your trip.' |
| I went flying high all the way, all the way. |
| He said: 'We can’t leave him out in the rain' |
| 'He just might freeze and die' |
| 'So why not put him on a plane' |
| 'And send him home in the sky?' |
| So they took me to the L.A. airport |
| Laid twenty dollars in my hand |
| Well, I paid my fare, I’m in the air |
| Flying back home again |
| And I went flying high |
| All the way, yeah all the way, all the way |
| You know I went flying high all the way |
| Don’t you know I went flying high all the… |
