1:04:00
And I missed my Ioved one so
1:04:04
In the earIy mornin´ rain
1:04:09
With no pIace to go
1:04:12
Out on runway number nine
1:04:16
Big 707 set to go
1:04:21
But I´m out here on the grass
Where the pavement never grows
1:04:30
Where the Iiquor tasted good
And the women aII were fast
1:04:38
There she goes my friend
1:04:42
She´s roIIing out at Iast
1:04:46
Hear the mighty engines roar
1:04:51
See the siIver wing on high
1:04:55
She´s away and westward bound
For above the cIouds she fIies
1:05:03
Where the mornin´ rain don´t faII
And the sun aIways shines
1:05:12
She´II be fIying over my home
In about three hours time
1:05:21
This oI´ airport´s got me down
It´s no earthIy good to me
1:05:29
´Cause I´m stuck here on
The ground
1:05:33
CoId and drunk as I might be
1:05:37
Can´t jump a jet pIane
1:05:42
Like you can a freight train
1:05:46
So I best be on my way
1:05:50
In the earIy mornin´ rain
1:05:54
So I best be on my way
1:05:58
In the earIy mornin´ rain
