Lyrics Flyin' High (In The Friendly Sky) - Detroit Mix - Marvin Gaye

Flying high in the friendly sky
(Flying high) without ever leavin' the ground, no
Rest of the folks are tired and weary
(Oh Lord), and have laid their bodies down

I go the place where danger awaits me (oh Lord)
And it's bound to forsake me (ooh Lord)
So stupid minded
I can't help it
Oh, so stupid minded
But I go crazy when I can't find it

In the morning, I'll be alright, my friend (oh Lord)
But soon the night will bring the pains (that hurt me)
The pain, oh the pain (that hurt me)
Flying high in the friendly sky, oh Lord
Without ever leaving the ground (yeah!)
And I ain't seen nothing but trouble baby (flying)
Nobody really understands, no no (help me, somebody)
And I go to the place where good feelin' awaits me
Self-destruction's in my hand

Oh Lord, so stupid minded (can you help me? Can you help?)
Oh Lord, I go crazy when I can't find it (help me)
Well I know, I'm hooked, my friend (got to help me)
To the boy who makes slaves out of men (got to help me)

Oh-oh believe me (got to help me, oh)
Flying high in a friendly sky
Oh, baby, oh...
Flyin' high, in a friendly sky
