Lyrics John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band – Higher Ground
Text:
Well I’m trying to find my way,
I’m just a simple man,
Trying to keep a little faith baby,
In a world I don’t really understand,
After all is said and done,
Another hard earned day is through,
And I need a little shelter baby,
I’ll be coming on home to you,
Chorus:
Higher Ground,
Higher Ground,
There’s trouble coming down, I’m moving up,
To Higher Ground,
Higher Ground, There’s trouble comin’ down,
I’m getting out, I’m moving up to Higher Ground,
Sometimes I lose my way,
That roads a little rough,
And every step along the way baby,
Is just too much of not enough,
But a poor man’s riches baby,
Is what keeps me calm,
And I don’t want for nothin baby,
When I’m wrapped up in your arms
Chorus
The best things I ever had,
A few precious moments that reign true,
If I could wrap’em in a big brown bag baby,
I’d give’em all straight to you,
That early morning sun,
Shines through the window cross my face,
And I’m moving into place,
Back across that room,
I see you lying there so still,
I leave with the best part of me baby,
And a promise I’ll fullfill,
Chorus
Take me higher baby,
Higher and higher and higher, to Higher Ground,
Love can lift me higher,
To Higher Ground
