Song title: George Donaldson - Burlington

Edit By: 216.73.216.66

A full day in an airport, with another plane delay
Well there’s flaming hot dogs and coffee stall,
And people pass by car,
But I’ve only got $10 and I know it won’t go far

Bound in like a prisoner, with the inmates passing me by
All bound for some destination somewhere through the sky
James Galway’s coming through my earphones he’s easing up this pain
As I watch another plane delayed by the bloody pouring rain.

Chorus:
And I wished I was in Burlington, with the people that I know,
And I wished I was in Burlington, down in Lake Ontario.

I should be playing on the stage at 9 or 10 o’clock,
With the thunder passing overhead as the plane begins to dock
I’m thinking to myself, it won’t be long ‘til we’re away
The plane gets redirected, now it’s gone out to L.A.

Chorus

It’s half way now ‘til midnight and I finally made it here,
I’m tired, and I’m hungry and I’m thristin’ for a beer,
The gig has long since been and gone, the moon is shining bright,
And an empty invitation says come back some other night.

Chorus x2

Down in Lake Ontario
