LYRICS

Life's great, life's grand Future, all planned No more, clouds in the sky How'm I ridin'? I'm ridin' high Someone, I love Mad for, my love So long, Jonah, goodbye How'm I ridin'? I'm ridin' high Floating, on a starlit ceiling Doting, on the cards I'm dealing Gloating, because I'm feeling so hap-hap-happy, I'm slap-happy So ring bells, sing songs Blow horns, beat gongs Our love, never will die How'm I ridin'? I'm ridin' high Someone, I love Mad for, my love So long, Jonah, goodbye How'm I ridin'? I'm ridin' high Floating, on a starlit ceiling Doting, on the cards I'm dealing Gloating, because I'm feeling so hap-hap-happy, I'm slap-happy So ring bells, sing songs Blow horns, beat gongs Our love, never will die How'm I ridin'? I'm ridin' high
