   Last night I was dreaming I laying drowning in a stream
  But in the light of day I see it's much more than a dream
  Life is like a river that carries you on down
  It's time we make like we was making tracks for higher ground
  
  I'm always taking chances and got me by on luck
  One a few and lost a few, oh had to suck it up
  But I see where it's leading me, I've got to turn around
  Today's the day I thought of making tracks for higher ground
  
  For higher ground, (higher ground), higher ground, (higher ground)
  You ain't going nowhere when you're always falling down
  So get off on a good foot and stop stumbling around
  Man I'm off and running making tracks for higher ground
  
  Yeah, I had a friend who said he'd love to drink and run around
  Wasn't anyway old mercy'd put that bottle down
  Well I just heard the other day they laid him in the ground
  One way or the other brother we're bound for higher ground
  
  For higher ground, (higher ground), higher ground, (higher ground)
  You ain't going nowhere when you're always falling down
  You got to pick your head up, keep your mind and body sound
  Man I'm off and running making tracks for higher ground
  
  The moral of my story is the fool he never think
  And all around you life says you must change every day
  Throw off those old shackles and get up and dance around
  Today's the day we're roping, making tracks for higher ground
  
  For higher ground, (higher ground), higher ground, (higher ground)
  You ain't going nowhere when you're always falling down
  Get off on the good foot and stop stumbling around
  Man we're off and running making tracks for higher ground
  
  For higher ground, (higher ground), higher ground, (higher ground)
  You ain't going nowhere when you're always falling down
  Get up on the good foot and stop stumbling around
  
  Man we're off and running making tracks for higher ground
  
  Up and running babe for higher ground, for higher ground baby
  Up and running up for higher ground, don't let me down boys
  We're all running up to higher ground
