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… |
