[Verse 1]
There's a high flyin' bird way up in the sky
And I wonder if she looks down on me as she flies on by
While she's ridin' so free and easy in the sky
[Chorus]
But look at me here
Lord, I'm just rooted like a tree here
And I got the sit-down-can't-fly, oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues
[Verse 2]
Well, the sun comes along, and it lights up the day
Well, it brings the daytime, and it goes on it's way
From the east to the west it travels every day
[Chorus]
But look at me here
Lord, I'm just rooted like a tree here
And I got the sit-down-can't-fly, oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues
[Bridge]
Well, I once knew a man
He worked down in the mine
Well, he never saw the sun, and he never stopped cryin'
Then one day his woman up and died
She just upped and died
You know she just upped and died
Well, she wanted to fly
The only way to fly was to die
There's a high flyin' bird way up in the sky
And I wonder if she looks down on me as she flies on by
While she's ridin' so free and easy in the sky
[Chorus]
But look at me here
Lord, I'm just rooted like a tree here
And I got the sit-down-can't-fly, oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues
[Verse 2]
Well, the sun comes along, and it lights up the day
Well, it brings the daytime, and it goes on it's way
From the east to the west it travels every day
[Chorus]
But look at me here
Lord, I'm just rooted like a tree here
And I got the sit-down-can't-fly, oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues
[Bridge]
Well, I once knew a man
He worked down in the mine
Well, he never saw the sun, and he never stopped cryin'
Then one day his woman up and died
She just upped and died
You know she just upped and died
Well, she wanted to fly
The only way to fly was to die
