"Flyin' High (In The Friendly Sky)" lyrics

"Flyin' High (In The Friendly Sky)"

Flying high in the friendly sky
Flying high without ever leaving the ground, no
Rest of the folks are tired and weary
Oh, Lord, and have laid their bodies down
I go to the place where danger awaits me
And it's bound to forsake me
So stupid minded
I can't help it, so stupid minded
But I go crazy when I can't find it
In the morning, I'll be alright, my friend
But soon, the night will bring the pains
The pain, awful pain

Flying high in the friendly sky
Without ever leaving the ground
And I ain't seen nothing but trouble, baby
Nobody really understands, no, no
And I go to the place where good feeling awaits me
Self destruction's in my hand
Oh, Lord, so stupid minded
Oh, but I go crazy when I can't find it
Well, I know I'm hooked, my friend
To the boy who makes slaves out of men
And oh, believe me

Flying high in a friendly sky
Flying high in a friendly sky
