Lyrics

[00:15.64] I was stuck on an LA freeway
[00:19.45] Got rainwater in my boots
[00:23.46] My thumbs done froze, can't feel my toes
[00:27.18] I'm feeling a little thirsty, too
[00:31.20] Wheels throwin' water all over my act
[00:34.49] And Mr. Jones don't lend me a hand
[00:39.01] Up come two cats in a Cadillac
[00:42.16] And they say won't you hop in, man
[00:45.63] I went flying high
[00:53.06] All the way
[00:56.51] All the way
[01:01.57] The one that's driving has got a Bowler hat
[01:05.18] The other's got a Fez on his head
[01:08.69] They turn around and grin and I grin back
[01:12.39] But not a word was said
[01:15.98] So I took out my harp and I played 'em a tune
[01:19.83] I could see they were diggin' it
[01:23.71] Then the one with the Fez,
[01:25.88] Well he turns and he says
[01:27.82] We'd like to help you make your trip
[01:30.88] And I went flying high
[01:37.84] All the way
[01:41.71] All the way
[01:46.30] He said we can't leave him out in the rain
[01:50.16] He just might freeze and die
[01:53.88] So, why not put him on a plane
[01:57.68] And send him home in the sky
[02:00.87] So, they took me to the LA airport
[02:04.77] Laid twenty dollars in my hand
[02:08.42] Well, I paid my fair,
[02:10.88] I'm a millionaire
[02:12.83] Flyin' back home again
[02:15.55] And I went flying high
[02:22.61] All the way
[02:26.13] Yeah, all the way
[02:30.02] All the way
[02:32.20] You know I went flying high
[02:34.34] All the way
