Flyin' High (In The Friendly Sky)
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Flying high in the friendly sky
Flying high, without ever leavin' the ground, no
Rest of the folks are tired and weary
Oh, Lord, and have laid their bodies down (yeah, yeah)
Oh, yeah, I go the place where danger awaits me (oh, no)
And it's bound to forsake me (ooh, Lord)
So stupid minded, I can't help it
Oh, so stupid minded
But I go crazy when I can't find it (find, ooh, find it)
In the morning, I'll be alright, my friend (oh, Lord)
But soon the night will bring the pains (ooh)
The pain, oh, the pain (oh)
Flying high in the friendly sky
Without ever leaving the ground (yeah, ooh-oh)
And I ain't seen nothing but trouble, baby
Nobody really understands, no, no (help me, somebody)
And I go to the place where the good feelin' awaits me
Self-destruction's in my hand
Oh, Lord, so stupid minded (can you help me? Can you help?)
Oh, but I go crazy when I can't find it (help me)
Well I know I'm hooked my friend (got to help me)
To the boy who makes slaves out of men (got to help me), and oh believe me
Flying high in a friendly sky
Oh-oh, baby, flyin' high
Ooh-hoo
Ooh-hoo
Flying' high in a friendly sky
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Flying high in the friendly sky
Flying high, without ever leavin' the ground, no
Rest of the folks are tired and weary
Oh, Lord, and have laid their bodies down (yeah, yeah)
Oh, yeah, I go the place where danger awaits me (oh, no)
And it's bound to forsake me (ooh, Lord)
So stupid minded, I can't help it
Oh, so stupid minded
But I go crazy when I can't find it (find, ooh, find it)
In the morning, I'll be alright, my friend (oh, Lord)
But soon the night will bring the pains (ooh)
The pain, oh, the pain (oh)
Flying high in the friendly sky
Without ever leaving the ground (yeah, ooh-oh)
And I ain't seen nothing but trouble, baby
Nobody really understands, no, no (help me, somebody)
And I go to the place where the good feelin' awaits me
Self-destruction's in my hand
Oh, Lord, so stupid minded (can you help me? Can you help?)
Oh, but I go crazy when I can't find it (help me)
Well I know I'm hooked my friend (got to help me)
To the boy who makes slaves out of men (got to help me), and oh believe me
Flying high in a friendly sky
Oh-oh, baby, flyin' high
Ooh-hoo
Ooh-hoo
Flying' high in a friendly sky
