Paul Pena - Jet Airliner Lyrics
Can't see forty-two, just 'bout t'go insaneI've been down beforeRidin' along in this big jet planeI've been thinkin' about jumpin' out the door'Cause my home land is so far awayAnd I feel like it's all been doneSomebody's tryin' to make me stayAnd I've got to be on the runOh big ol' jet airlinerDon't carry me too far awayOh big ol' jet airliner'Cause it's here that I've got to stayI've been sitting by the firesideWonderin' where my strength is goin'Looking through the (midlight?),Tryin' to find out which way the wind is blowin'But my heart keeps pushing me backwardsAs I jump aboard that 747Riding high, but with a tear in my eyeYou got to go through hell before you get to heavenWoah, big ol' jet airlinerDon't carry me too far awayOh big ol' jet airliner'Cause it's here that I've got to stayOh I know I willI'm gonna leave on my own this timeOh, yeah, yeahBig ol' jet airlinerDon't carry me too far awayBig ol' jet airlinerHere that I've got to stayGoodbye to all my friends at homeGoodbye to people I've trustedI've got to go out and make my wayI might get rich you know I might get bustedBut my heart keeps calling me backwardsAs I get on the 707Ridin' high I got tears in my eyesYou know you got to go through hellBefore you get to heavenBig ol' jet airlinerDon't carry me too far awayOh, Oh big ol' jet airlinerCause it's here that I've got to stayTouchin' down in New EnglandFeel the heat comin' downFirst thought is "Lord, I said I'd be there"But I couldn't seem to quite get it down'Cause I'm goin' with some hesitationI've got to go and make my wayBut there's so many people, Lord, to talk toAnd a whole lotta debts to payOh, big ol' jet airlinerDon't carry me too far awayOh big ol' jet airliner'Cause it's here that I've got to stayGoodbye to old friends at homeGoodbye to willing friends I've trustedI've got to go out and make my wayI might get rich and I might get bustedBut I'm going, Lord, with so many things to clean upI've got to make my way clear before meBut I don't want to get mixed upIn any of that funky shit that goin' down before meOooh, big ol' jet airlinerDon't carry me too far awayBig ol' jet airliner'Cause it's here that I've got to stay('Cause it's California where I've got to stay [last time])
