High Flying Bird

There's a high flyin' bird, flying way up in the sky
 ♪
 And I wonder if she looks down, as she goes on by?
 Well, she's flying so freely in the sky
 Lord, look at me here
 I'm rooted like a tree here
 Got those sit-down can't cry
 Oh Lord, gonna die blues
 Now the sun it comes up and lights up the day
 And when he gets tired, Lord, he goes on down his way
 To the east and to the west he meets God every day
 Lord, look at me here
 I'm rooted like a tree here
 Got those sit-down, can't cry
 Oh Lord, gonna die blues
 ♪
 Now I had a woman
 Lord, she lived down by the mine
 She ain't never seen the sun
 Oh Lord, never stopped crying
 Then one day my woman up and died
 Lord, she up and died now
 Oh Lord, she up and died now
 She wanted to die and the only way to fly is die, die, die
 
 Well there's a high flyin' bird, flying way up in the sky
 And I wonder if she looks down as she goes on by?
 Well, she's flying so freely in the sky, hey
 Lord, look at me here
 I'm rooted like a tree here
 Got those sit-down, can't cry
 Oh, Lord, gonna die blues
 Got those sit-down, can't cry
