when the weather is fine
and the clouds have gone by
i go up in the air
waving people goodbye
in my flying machine
i go up
i go down
i go round and round
i can race with the birds
i can fight with the wind
i can fly on my head
i can dance in a spin
in my flying machine
i go up
i go down
i go round and round and round
people on the ground
they gathered all around to admire
there's a feeling inside me
that gives me the urge to go higher
well
i know what goes up
will eventually fall
so i won't take no chances
while i'm having a ball
in my flying machine
i go up
i go down
i go round and round and round and round
higher and higher!
people on the ground

there's a feeling inside me
that gives me the urge to go higher
aaahhh
but i know what goes up
will eventually fall
so i won't take no chances
while i'm having a ball
in my flying machine
i go up
i go down
i go round and round and round and round
yeah
higher and higher!
higher and higher!
higher and higher!
