Murray McLauchlan - Falling off a Highwire lyrics

Fallin', fallin' off the high wire Fallin', I don't wanna die Fire escapes, cats howlin' at me Got no father Just frustration Uptown party girls, Cadillac cars How do you get it Ain't no rock star Fallin', fallin' off the high wire Fallin', I don't wanna die Starin' in the stores Can't buy nothin' Stumblin' by the doors Nobody says "Hey man come in" So I rip off somethin' It's my profession Put me in a rocket somewhere I've learned my lesson Fallin', fallin' off the high wire Fallin', I don't wanna die Got to get off the street Can't die , ain't my turn now People lookin' for me Can't hide uptown Mother take me back to where you found me Just can't stand the garbage It's crazy 'round me Fallin', fallin' off the high wire Fallin', I don't wanna die
