Steve Miller Band - Jet Airliner lyrics

Leaving home, out on the road I've been down before Riding along on this big old jet plane I've been thinking about my home But my love light seems so far away And I feel like it's all been done Somebody's trying to make me stay You know I got to be moving on Oh, big ol' jet airliner Don't carry me too far away 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 Riding 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, big ol' jet airliner 'Cause it's here that I've got to stay Touching down in New England town Feel the heat coming down I've got to keep on keeping on You know the big wheel keeps a-spinning around And I'm going with some hesitation You know that I can surely see That I don't want to get caught up in any of that Funky sh** going down in the city Big ol' jet airliner Don't carry me too far away Oh, big ol' jet airliner 'Cause it's here that I've got to stay Oh, big ol' jet airliner Don't carry me too far away Oh, big ol' jet airliner 'Cause it's here that I've got to stay Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Big ol' jet airliner Don't carry me too far away Whoa-oh, big ol' jet airliner 'Cause it's here that I've got to stay Whoa-oh, big ol' jet airliner Carry me to my home Oh, big ol' jet airliner 'Cause it's there that I belong
