I'm gonna fly 'til the tires can't fly no more. C'mon! I've got my friends and a shark skin jacket. Nothing to lose, gonna live it up 'til I die. Well, on the night before the supper. And I'm gonna smash the glass just right. So, give me one good dose of thunder. Before I fall on my ass tonight. Four on the floor, a hundred miles per hour. I'm gonna fly 'til the tires can't fly no more. C'mon! I've got my blues, gonna make a racket. Nothing to lose but this straight jacket on too tight. ---------------------- 6.
