Paragraph Lyric
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early morning rain with no place to go

Out on runway No 9 big 7-0-7 set to go
But I'm standin' on the grass where the cold winds blow
Where the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
There she goes my friend she's a rolling now at last
Hear the mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high
She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly
Where the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shine
She'll be flying o'er my home in about three hours time

This old airport's got me down it's no earthly good to me
Cause I'm stuck here on the ground as cold and drunk as I can be
You can't jump a big jet plane like you can an old freight train
So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain
So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand   With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand   I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so   In the early morning rain with no place to go      Out on runway No 9 big 7-0-7 set to go   But I'm standin' on the grass where the cold winds blow   Where the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast   There she goes my friend she's a rolling now at last   Hear the mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high   She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly   Where the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shine   She'll be flying o'er my home in about three hours time      This old airport's got me down it's no earthly good to me   Cause I'm stuck here on the ground as cold and drunk as I can be   You can't jump a big jet plane like you can an old freight train   So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain   So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain
