Flying High

Lyrics

I'm stuck on an L.A. freeway Got rainwater in my boots My thumb done froze, can't feel my toes I'm feeling a little thirsty, too Wheels throwin' 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?" [Chorus] I went flying high All the way All the way [Verse 2] The one that's driving has 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" [Chorus] And I went flying high All the way All the way [Verse 3] He says, "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 LA airport Laid twenty dollars in my hand Well, I paid my fare, I'm in the air Flyin' back home again [Chorus] And I went flying high All the way Yeah, all the way All the way You know I went flying high All the way
