Flying High

Lyrics

I'm stuck on the LA freeway
 Got rain water in my boots
 My thumbs done froze, can't feel my toes
 I feel a little destitute
 Wheels throwing 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?"
 I went flying high
 All the way, all the way
 The one that's driving's 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"
 And I went flying high
 All the way, all the way
 He said, "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 20 dollars in my hand
 Well, I paid my fare, I'm in the air
 Flying back home again
 And I went flying high
 All the way, yeah, all the way
 All the way, you know I went flying high all the way
 Don't you know I went flying high all the way?
