Down here on the ground Ain’t no place for livin’ Down here on the ground Watchin’ sparrows fly I watch the birds as they make their way They’re flyin’ kind of free And I wish it were me
Down here on the ground Wantin’ somethin’ better Down here on the ground Wantin’ somethin’ more One morning sure you will find I’ve got wings on my mind Wings to take me high So if you hear a sound From down here on the ground Don’t you know, my friend It’s only me, it’s only me Tryin’ to fly
Down here on the ground Wantin’ somethin’ better Down here on the ground Wantin’ somethin’ more One morning sure you will find I’ve got wings on my mind Wings to take me high So if you hear a sound From way down here on the ground Don’t you know, my friend It’s only me, it’s only me Tryin’ to fly
Me tryin’ to fly, me tryin’ to fly… Me tryin’ to fly
