Higher Lyrics

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

I [?] the pretty [?]
'Course I'm bad
Mister everyone telled I trust the morning
Why does the [?] thing now?

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

I [?] the pretty [?]
'Course I'm bad
Mister everyone telled I trust the morning
Why does the [?] thing now?
Yeah, [?] now
