Jet Airliner (remastered 2017) Lyrics - Steve Miller Band

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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 shit 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 

Woah-oh, big ol' jet airliner 

'Cause it's here that I've got to stay 

Oh, big ol' jet airliner 

Carry me to my home 

Oh, big ol' jet airliner 

'Cause it's there that I belong
