| So you got it right there in the palm of your hand
|
| Too busy with the sun and the sea and the sand
|
| To think about a so and so like me
|
| What you gonna do when the sun goes cold
|
| And lines on your face say you’re getting too old
|
| To be messing with that kind of company
|
| And all your friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down
|
| 'Cause when they’ve had enough of your pretty face
|
| When they’ve had their fun
|
| They will leave you flat
|
| They will let you fall
|
| At the drop of a hat
|
| They’ll cut you down
|
| And when you’re down
|
| I won’t be around
|
| Everybody knows that you got a stack
|
| They’re saying that you made it on your back
|
| I remember when you gave it all to me
|
| You’re looking like you really got it made
|
| Like it’s never gonna rain on your charade
|
| 'Cause now you give it all away for free
|
| And all your friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down
|
| 'Cause when they’ve had enough of your pretty face
|
| When they’ve had their fun
|
| They will leave you flat
|
| They will let you fall
|
| At the drop of a hat
|
| They’ll cut you down
|
| And when you’re down
|
| I won’t be around
|
| What you gonna do when your lover boys
|
| Have simply had enough of all your toys
|
| And they’re looking for another place to play
|
| Baby, when you find you’re all alone
|
| And you’re waiting all night for the telephone
|
| Wishing that you’d never gone away
|
| And all your friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down
|
| 'Cause when they’ve had enough of your pretty face
|
| When they’ve had their fun
|
| They will leave you flat
|
| They will let you fall
|
| At the drop of a hat
|
| They’ll cut you down
|
| All your friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down
|
| Friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down
|
| Friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down (Let you down)
|
| Friends in high places
|
| You know they’re gonna let you down |
