Dan Bern - Airplane Blues lyrics

Lean back Sit back on the porch swing Pour yourself a gla** of lemonade Make sure the dog's in He's been scratchin' a lot lately Like there's an epidemic of fleas I ain't never seen nothin' like it Summer of '75 All of these bugs came in from out of state Messed with everybody Especially the dog Ain't never been the same Just lay back now First time I ever heard this song First time I went to I don't remember how old I was My first time out east And I went to theis club called, "Tramps" Late at night, I got to see Lightnin' Hopkins sing I was closer to him Than I was to my dad at the time He sang A week later, he died I think that was the last show he ever played This is my favorite one that he done It's called the "Airplane Blues" Goes like this I got a woman She's always out of town I got a woman She's always out of town I'm gonna buy me an airplane I'm gonna fly that woman down That woman that left me She ain't never satisfied That woman that left me She ain't never satisfied She's gonna ride with me in the airplane Next time I take her for a ride Next time we fly I'm gonna take her for a trip Down across the world Next time we fly Gonna take her for a trip down across the world She's gonna take off Just like that old flying squirrel I got a woman She's always out of town She's always out of town I'm buying an airplane I'm flying that woman down Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
