| [00:13.57] |
In the early morning rain |
| [00:18.15] |
With a dollar in my hand |
| [00:22.93] |
And an aching in my heart |
| [00:27.73] |
And my pockets full of sand |
| [00:32.57] |
I'm a long ways from home |
| [00:36.94] |
And I missed my loved one so |
| [00:42.17] |
In the early morning rain |
| [00:47.45] |
With no place to go |
| [00:52.11] |
Out on runway number nine |
| [00:56.21] |
Big 707 set to go |
| [01:01.43] |
Well I'm out here on the grass |
| [01:06.19] |
Where the pavement never grows |
| [01:11.39] |
Where the liquor tasted good |
| [01:15.55] |
And the women all were fast |
| [01:20.63] |
There she goes my friend |
| [01:25.46] |
She's rolling out at last |
| [01:30.25] |
Hear the mighty engines roar |
| [01:34.90] |
See the silver wing on high |
| [01:39.68] |
She's away and westward bound |
| [01:44.38] |
For above the clouds she flies |
| [01:49.41] |
Where the morning rain don't fall |
| [01:54.14] |
And the sun always shines |
| [01:58.96] |
She'll be flying over my home |
| [02:03.76] |
In about three hours time |
| [02:08.69] |
This ol' airport's got me down |
| [02:13.28] |
It's no earthly good to me |
| [02:18.40] |
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground |
| [02:22.64] |
Cold and drunk as I might be |
| [02:27.79] |
Can't jump a jet plane |
| [02:32.53] |
Like you can a freight train |
| [02:37.38] |
So I best be on my way |
| [02:42.22] |
In the early morning rain |
| [02:46.91] |
So I best be on my way |
| [02:51.78] |
In the early morning rain |
