I'm stuck on the L.A. freeway Got rain water in my boots My thumbs done froze, can't feel my toes I feel a little destitute Wheels throwing water all over my axe And Mr. Jones won't lend me a hand Up come two cats in a Cadillac And they say, "Won't you hop in, man?" I went flying high, all the way, all the way The one that's driving's got a bowler hat The other's got a fez on his head They turn around and grin and I grin back But not a word was said So I took out my harp and I played 'em a tune I could see they were diggin' it Then the one with the fez, well, he turns and he says "We'd like to help you make your trip" And I went flying high, all the way, all the way He said, "We can't leave him out in the rain He just might freeze and die So why not put him on a plane And send him home in the sky?" So they took me to the L.A. airport Laid twenty dollars in my hand Well, I paid my fare, I'm in the air Flying back home again And I went flying high, all the way Yeah, all the way, all the way You know I went flying high all the way Don't you know I went flying high all the way
