Higher Ground-The Sing-Off

Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground We've got to steal away, uh I feel the wind blow, on the corner And i'm looking down along this dead end street All the people, are getting older But they don't give a damn, their lifes are incompleate I don't look no better than it did before And I know what's happening behind each door If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away That's a part that I can't play I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town I can feel it driving me away Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground We've got to steal away Uh As a young boy, I didn't fit in, and i knew it then I wouldn't be the same That was only in the beginning, and as the time rolled on deeper grew the pain So give me one good reason, why I should stay! I think I've got enough money for the late night train There's a world you've never seen But I've been there in my dreams It's calling out to me I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town I can feel it driving me away 'Cause baby, you and me were meant for higher ground We've got to steal away If I don't get out today, I'm gonna waste my life away And that's a part that I can't play I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town I can feel it driving me away Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground We've got to steal away I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town I can feel it driving me away Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town I can feel it driving me away Baby, you and me were meant for higher ground We've got to steal away (I don't wanna spend my whole life in this town) Oh, got to steal away (baby, you and me were meant for higher ground) Got to steal away
