Telephones and post cards I called you from the lobby bar on Tuesday How's the okra coming up? And boy, I wish I had me some Save me a plate Yeah, I've been sleeping alright I get a couple days in July Kiss dad for me, I love you both, goodnight Sparrow, oh, it wouldn't trade nothing for the way it feels to fly It ain't fair though, how you miss the ground when you're out here in the sky Higher than you've ever been Lonely like you never been Waiting on the wind to take you home Hard rain over Fayetteville Jack and Coke, a sleeping pill Living the dream 30,000 feet down there, you're Waking daddy up in his chair And cutting the lights and locking the door And saying a prayer For a sparrow, wouldn't trade nothing for the way it feels to fly It ain't fair though, how you miss the ground when you're out here in the sky You're higher than you've ever been Lonely like you never been Waiting on the wind to take you home Higher than you've ever been Lonely like you never been Waiting on the wind to take you home Sparrow Sparrow Sparrow Sparrow Sparrow
