Lyrics

There's a high flying bird Flying way up in the sky And I wonder if she looks down As she flies on by Flying there so easy in the sky Oh, look at me, Lord I'm rooted like a tree, Lord Got the sit down, can't cry Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues The sun comes around It lights up the day now And when he gets tired You know he just rolls on his way From the east to the west He sees his God every day Oh, look at me, Lord I'm rooted like a tree, Lord Got the sit down, can't cry Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues Well, I had an old mule She lived way down in the mine She ain't never seen the sun, Lord She never stopped trying Then one day, my mule She up and died Oh, look at me, Lord I'm rooted like a tree, Lord Got the sit down, can't cry Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues Got the sit down, can't cry Oh Lord, I'm gonna die blues
