Jet Airliner (Live)

Seat 22, flight to Berlin, say

I've been down before

I'm riding alone on this big jet plane

And I'm thinking 'bout jumping out the door

'Cause my homeland is so far away

That I feel like it's up and done

Someone's trying to make me stay

But I feel like I've got to run

Big old jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Big old jet airliner

'Cause it's here that I got to stay

I've been sitting by the fireside

Wondering where my strength is going

Looking through the midnight

Trying to find out which way the wind is blowing

But my heart keeps pushing me backwards

As I jump aboard that 747

Riding high but with a tear in my eye

You know you got to go through hell before you get to heaven

Big old jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Big old jet airliner

'Cause it's here that I'm gonna stay

Touching down in London, England

I feel the rain pouring down

I knew that if I would be there

But I can't seem to get it down

So now I'm going with hesitation

Lord, I've got to be on my way

I got so many people talking to

And a whole lot of debt to pay

Big old jet airliner

Don't carry me too far away

Big old jet airliner

Well, it's here I got to stay

Big old jet airliner

Carry me to my home

Big old jet airliner

You know it's here where I belong
