leavin home
out on the road
i've been down before
ridin'along in this
big ol'jet plane
i've been thinkin'about my home
but my love light
seems so far away
and i feel like it's all been done
somebody's tryin
to make me stay
you know i've got to be movin'on
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
don't carry me too far away
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
cause it's here that i've got to stay
goodbye to all my friends at home
goodbye to people i've trusted
i've got to go out
and make my way
i might get rich
you know i might get busted
but my heart
keeps calling me backwards
as i get on the 707
ridin'high
i got tears in my eyes
you know you got to go through hell
before you
get to heaven
big ol'jet airliner
don't carry me too far away
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
cause it's here that i've got to stay
touchin down in new england town
feel the heat comin'down
i've got to keep on
keepin on
you know the
big wheel keeps on spinnin'around
and i'm goin'with some hesitation
you know that i can surely see
that i
don't
want
to
get caught up
in any of that
funky s t goin'down in the city
big ol'jet airliner
don't carry me too far away
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
cause it's here that i've got to stay
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
don't carry me too far away
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
cause it's here that i've got to stay
big ol'jet airliner
don't carry me too far away
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
cause it's here that i've got to stay
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
carry me to my home
oh oh big ol'jet airliner
cause it's there that i belong
