Gettin' By, High and Strange

{Intro}

New York City was a stich in time

When I stood all I could of LA

Patchin' up the pieces of my tangled mind

Diggin' somethin' different every day, yeah

Soon as I was better I was movin' on

Gettin' it together, gettin' good and gone

And by (gettin' by) high (good and high)

And strange (gonna get some strange)

New ain't nothin' but a state of mind

Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind

I'll take anything that I can find

Anyhow, anywhere, anyway, anytime

I'll keep livin' till the day I die

As long as I can get it up for one more try

Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)

And strange (gonna get some strange)

{Bridge}

New ain't nothin' but a state of mind

Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind

I'll take anything that I can find

Anyhow, anywhere, anyway, anytime

I'll keep livin' till the day I die

As long as I can get it up for one more try

Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)

And strange (gonna get some strange)

Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)

And strange (gonna get some strange)

Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high)

And strange (gonna get some strange)
