(Marvin Gaye/Anna Gaye/Elgie Stover)
|
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.
|
I go the place where danger awaits me
|
and it's bound to forsake me.
|
So stupid minded.
|
I can't help it
|
oh ya, 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, oh the 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 the good feelin' awaits me
|
Selfdestruction in my hand
|
Oh Lord, so stupid minded
|
Oh and 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 beleive me
|
Flying high in a friendly sky
|
Oh baby, flyin' high
|
