The Great Airplane Strike - Paul Revere & The Raiders[00:00:00]
I was down in L A town [00:00:26]
When our manager said "Jump "[00:00:28]
I threw my clothes[00:00:31]
And my saxophone [00:00:32]
In a two by four bit trunk [00:00:33]
I pushed it to the airport [00:00:36]
And I ran to the ticket line [00:00:39]
Man said "Son [00:00:42]
You could have saved the run [00:00:43]
Those airplanes just quit flyin'"[00:00:44]
If I can't leave here [00:00:47]
I just might stay[00:00:49]
And that L A flyway[00:00:52]
Is goin' to be my home [00:00:54]
I ran to the terminal building [00:01:01]
To fly by my airline[00:01:03]
The man said I could ride the wing[00:01:07]
And I said that was fine[00:01:09]
He said "I'll confirm your reservation [00:01:12]
And put the plane on hold"[00:01:15]
He came on back and said[00:01:18]
"Sorry but that wing space[00:01:19]
Just been sold"[00:01:21]
If I can't leave here [00:01:22]
I just might stay[00:01:25]
And that L A flyway[00:01:28]
Is goin' to be my home [00:01:30]
Umm huum baby[00:01:33]
I walked into the washroom[00:01:37]
And I built myself a fire[00:01:40]
Threw on lots of paper[00:01:43]
And the flames kept gettin' higher[00:01:45]
The janitor come runnin' in [00:01:48]
So scared his face was white[00:01:51]
So I explained my situation [00:01:54]
He said "That's all right"[00:01:56]
If I can't leave here [00:01:59]
I just might stay[00:02:01]
And that L A flyway[00:02:04]
Is goin' to be my home[00:02:06]
Next day I thought that I would leave [00:02:13]
So I packed my things again [00:02:16]
Waited 14 hours for a taxi to come in [00:02:19]
Spotted one that wasn't full [00:02:25]
And I threw myself in fast [00:02:27]
The driver said "I'm sorry [00:02:30]
But this taxi's out of gas"[00:02:32]
If I can't leave here [00:02:35]
I just might stay[00:02:38]
And that L A flyway[00:02:41]
Is goin' to be my home[00:02:43]
