作词 : Lindsay, Melcher, Revere | |
I was down in L.A. town, when our manager said, "Jump" | |
I threw my clothes and my saxophone in a two by four bit trunk | |
I pushed it to the airport and I ran to the ticket line | |
Man said, "Son, you could have saved the run, those airplanes just quit flyin'" | |
If I can't leave here, I just might stay | |
And that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home | |
Uh-huh | |
I ran to the terminal building, to fly by my airline | |
The man said I could ride the wing and I said that was fine | |
He said, "I'll confirm your reservation, and put the plane on hold" | |
He come back and said, "Sorry but that wing space just been sold" | |
If I can't leave here, I just might stay | |
And that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home | |
Um-hum, baby | |
I walked into the washroom and I built myself a fire | |
Threw on lots of paper and the flames kept gettin' higher | |
The janitor come runnin' in, so scared his face was white | |
So I explained my situation, he said, "That's all right" | |
If I can't leave here, I just might stay | |
And that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home | |
Next day I thought that I would leave, so I packed my things again | |
I waited 14 hours for a taxi to come in | |
Spotted one that wasn't full and I threw myself in fast | |
The driver said, "I'm sorry, but this taxi's out of gas" | |
If I can't leave here, I just might stay | |
And that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home |
