1. Leaving home out on the road
D A
I've been down before
A
Riding along on this big old jet plane
D A
I've been thinking about my home
A
But my love light seems so far away
G D A
And it seems like it's all been done
A
Somebody's trying to make me stay
G D A
You know I got to be moving on
G D A

G D A
Don't carry me too far away
G D A
Big old jet airliner
G D A
'Cos it's here that I've got to stay
2. Goodbye to my friends at home
Goodbye to people I trusted
I 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've got to go thru hell before you get to heaven
Ref.: Big old jet airliner ...
3. Touching down in New England town
Feel the heat coming down
I got to keep on, keeping on
You know the big wheel keeps on spinning around
But 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

Carry me to my home
Big old jet airliner
'Cos it's there that I belong

Ref.: Big old jet airliner
Don't carry me ...
