The Poor Co-Pilot - Oscar Brand/The Roger Wilco Four[00:00:00]
Written by:Trad[00:00:02]
Oh I'm a co pilot I sit on the right[00:00:03]
I'm quick and courageous I'm wonderf'ly bright[00:00:07]
My job is remembring what the captain forgets[00:00:10]
And I never talk back so I have no regrets[00:00:13]
I'm a lousy co pilot and a long way from home[00:00:17]
I make out the flight plan and study the weather[00:00:24]
Pull up the gear drop it and stand by to feather[00:00:27]
I make out his mail forms I hire his whores[00:00:30]
And I fly his old crate to the tune of his snores[00:00:33]
I'm a lousy co pilot and a long way from home[00:00:37]
I make out the flight plan according to hoyle[00:00:43]
I take all the readings I check on the oil[00:00:47]
I hustle him out for the midnight alarm[00:00:50]
I fly through the fog while he sleeps on my arm[00:00:53]
I'm a lousy co pilot and a long way from home[00:00:57]
I treat him to coffee I keep him in cokes[00:01:03]
I laugh at his corn and his horrible jokes[00:01:06]
And once in a while when his landings are rusty[00:01:10]
I come through with yesiree captain it's gusty[00:01:13]
I'm a lousy co pilot and a long way from home[00:01:16]
All in all I'm commissioned a general stooge[00:01:23]
I sit on the right of this high flying scrooge[00:01:26]
Someday I'll make captain and then I'll be blessed[00:01:30]
I'll give my poor tongue one long hell of a rest[00:01:33]
I'm a lousy co pilot and a long way from home[00:01:36]
