Lyrics

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
