High Flying Bird Songtext

von Au Go-Go-Singers

Refrain:
There's a high fylin' bird
Way up in the sky
And I wonder does he look down as he flies on by
Just ridin' so free and easy in the sky
But look at me
I'm just rooted like a tree here
I got to sit down, can't fly
Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues

Now, I once knew a man
He lived in a mine
You know, he never saw the sun
But then he never stopped tryin'

Then one day that poor man he up and died
You know, he up and died
Now, he up and died
He wanted to fly, the only way to fly was to die

Now....
Refrain
