George Benson — Down Here on the Ground

[Verse 1] Down here on the ground Ain't no place for livin' Down here on the ground Watching sparrows fly I watch the birds As they make their wings They're flying kinda free And I wish it were me, mhm, mhm, mhm [Chorus] Down here on the ground Wanting something better Down here on the ground Wanting something more, mhm [Bridge] One morning soon You'll find I got wings on my mind Wings to take me high So, if you hear a sound From down here on the ground Don't you know, my friend, it's only me It's only me tryin' to fly [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Down here on the ground Ain't no place for livin' Down here on the ground Watching sparrows fly I'll watch the birds As they make their wings Flying kinda free And I wish it were, wish it were me, mhm, mhm, mhm [Chorus] Down here on the ground Wanting something better Down here on the ground Wanting something more, mhm [Bridge] One morning soon You'll find I got wings on my mind Wings to take me high So, if you hear a sound From way down here on the ground Don't you know, my friend, it's only me It's only me tryin' to fly, mhm, woo-hoo [Harmonizing] Down here on the ground Mmm, right here down here on the ground Woo-hoo-hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo-hoo-hoo, mmm Want a little help now, y'all I want a little help now Hey, baby Down here on the ground Down, down, down here On, on the ground [Harmonizing] [Outro] Down here on the ground
