In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand Now, I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so In the early morning rain with no place to go Out on runway number nine a big 707's set to go And I'm stuck here in the grass where the cold wind blows Now, the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast Well, there she goes, my friend, well she's going down at last Hear the mighty engines roar - see the silver bird on high She's away and westward bound - far above the clouds she'll fly There the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shines She'll be flying over my home in about three hours time This old airport's got me down - it's no earthly good to me 'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground as cold and drunk as I can be You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train So, I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train So, I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain

You like the rain in the morning Sleeping and snoring Feelings comes pouring down Where did the time go? Tossed in the cyclone Lost and can't find home Now Summer days gone Runaway from Everything uhh Everyday uhh Pluto These the only feelings you know I don't know how we can move on From this You like the rain in the morning Sleeping and snoring Feelings comes pouring down Where did the time go? Tossed in the cyclone Lost and can't find home Now Summer days gone Runaway from Everything uhh Everyday uhh

In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so In the early morning rain with no place to go Out on runway number nine, big seven-o-seven set to go But I'm stuck here in the grass with a pain that ever grows Now the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast Well now there she goes my friend, she's a-rolling down at last Hear the mighty engines roar, see the silver wing on high She's away and westward bound, far above the clouds she'll fly Where the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shines She'll be flying over my home in about three hours time This old airport's got me down, it's no earthly good to me 'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground, as cold and drunk as I can be You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain

A man living life here, Who bought into a plan Who one day will look back over all of this And see me as I am I talk like I know what I'm saying, I walk like I know where I am going, I pretend that I know who I am And I'll live like that until the end. The path that I follow, The way I live life It can down from before I can remember, And that makes it right He look out over ancient river He looked down at his feet in the stream He think over everything that happened Every war, every hunger, ever dream How animals looks just like each other How we think we are different I imagine I can be fooled I imagine it's easy to do How many minds for how many years Thinking, that nothing really matters here, So why don't I have a little fun before I die I'll get these fools to do my bidding I lie and cheat my way to the top of some dominion Lie back on a boat in the Mediterranean Chocked full of pretty woman Wouldn't that entertain me until I go And the whole ship fall down some years afterward When I don't matter Or live fondly in someone else's memory That means nothing to me That means nothing to me That means nothing to me That means nothing to me
