about

Music and lyrics by Paul Pena/ASCAP (Sailor Music).

lyrics

Leavin' on out on the road I've been down before
Ridin' along on that big ol' jet plane I been thinkin' 'bout jumpin' out the door
'Cause my homeland lives so far away and I feel like it's all been done
Somebody's tryin' to make me stay and I've got to be on the run

Ooooh, big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Ooooh, big ol' jet airliner
'Cause it's here that I got to stay

I've been sittin' by the fireside, wonderin' where my strength is goin'
Lookin' through the mirror of life tryin' to figure out which way the wind is blowin'
But my heart keeps pushin' me backwards as I get aboard that 747
Ridin' high but with a tear in my eye
You know you got to go through hell before you get to heaven

Big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Ooooh, big ol' jet airliner
Cause it's here that I got to stay

SOLO

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
'Cause I'm goin' with a calm hesitation
God's gonna make a way
But there's so many people, Lord, to talk to
And a whole lot of debt to pay

Ooooh big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Ooooh big ol' jet airliner
'Cause it's here that I got to stay
Ooooh big ol' jet airliner
Don't carry me too far away
Ooooh big ol' jet airliner
'Cause it's here that I got to stay
