This old world it ain't my home Nice place to visit, but you wouldn't stay A few more risings and settings of the sun And I will cross my legs and be on my way You can look up to me baby And I might see you looking down 'Cause there ain't no higher ground There ain't no higher ground ♪ Listen baby you ain't my friend even though we Float together down this raging flood You could rip your dress and add fuel to the fire but you can't Take the smoke out of these dirty lawns It might be heaven up above But even if it could be fun There ain't no higher ground There ain't no higher ground There ain't no higher ground There ain't no higher ground
