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
