High Coin - Jackie DeShannon

I’m goin' for high coin, baby

Or I ain’t goin' nowhere at all

I’m goin' for high coin, baby

To keep me high and in and up and down and all

While eatwells tried to label you

And tear down all the words you’re able to recall

That’s all before the fall

I’m in the high scenes, baby

I’m livin' in for out and high

I’m in the high scenes, baby

Where days are nights and nights are days of years gone by

Where blind men livin' by the rules

Are turnin' seekers into fools of words and rhyme

That’s fine, it’s my time

It looks like high time, baby

To stop our lovin' nickel dime

We’re in the high times, baby

Where words are lost and tempest tossed in lemon lime

When times and places effervesce

In words of wonder from down under I’m no less

I’m fine, it’s my time
