High Note |
| There were all of those things you weren’t supposed to do |
| Yes, and my my my my my, they were talking to you |
| There were all of those words that you shouldn’t have said |
| Like a dagger thrown, carry weight of lead |
| Livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high, high, high, high, high, high note |
| Listen, now that it’s lone and the wear’s been shown |
| Guessing my, my, my, how you have grown |
| Gather all of the rank and every ounce of pain |
| Wash the dirt and dust down the drain |
| It’s livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high, high, high, oh, high, high note |
| It’s livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high, high, high, mmm, high, high note |
| And if you gotta sing low |
| Sometimes the way to go |
| (Joe) Joe |
| (He looked over at Dave) Looked over at Dave |
| (He was thinkin' he had it made) He was thinkin', he was thinkin', oh, |
| he had it made |
| (Dave) Dave |
| (Looked over at Paul) looked on over at Paul |
| (He was thinkin' he had it all) He was thinkin', oh, he had it all |
| (Paul) Paul |
| (He looked over at Steve) Looked over at Steve |
| (Who's steadily moving) Moving, moving (toward what he believes) Hey, mmm-hmm, |
| mm,-hmm |
| He was livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high note |
| He was livin' on a high, high, high, high note |
| He was livin' on a high note, high note |
| Oh, no |
| He was livin' on a (high, high, high, high note) |
| Livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high note |
| He was livin' on a high, high, high, high note |
| He was livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high note |
| Livin' on a high, high, high, mmm, high, high note |
| I love a-livin' on a high note |
