Lyrics
[Verse 1]
With tuppence for paper and strings
You can have your own set of wings
With your feet on the ground, you're a bird in flight
With your fist holding tight
To the string of your kite
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Let's go fly a kite
Up to the highest height
Let's go fly a kite
And send it soaring up through the atmosphere
Up where the air is clear
Oh, let's go fly a kite
[Verse 2]
When you send it flyin' up there
All at once you're lighter than air
You can dance on the breeze over houses and trees
With your fist holding tight
To the string of your kite
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Let's go fly a kite
Up to the highest height
Let's go fly a kite
And send it soaring up through the atmosphere
Up where the air is clear
Oh, let's go fly a kite
