Jackie Lomax Higher Ground Lyrics

Higher Ground Lyrics

You say that you need a holiday
But it’s Saturday –
anyway
You say that you need more money
A Playboy Bunny

Couldn’t spend more money, honey

It’s such a crime to
bring each other down
It’s time for me to head for higher
ground
Above the water line…

You say that you’re feeling
restless
Edgy, even helpless
I can’t help your
feelings
It’s so revealing
What you say with your
feelings

It’s such a crime to bring each other
down
It’s time for me to head for higher ground
Above the water
line…

I’m gonna head for the mountains
Set my sights
higher
I’m gonna be over the horizon
Before you look for
me

You say that you need more time
To turn it over in your
mind
You’ve had time enough
Ain’t got to
cry
Don’t cause a fuss

It’s such a crime to bring each
other down
It’s time for me to head for higher ground
Above the
water line…
