Floatin' I'm floatin' on down through the sky   Never had no ambition to learn how to fly   I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land   With this bag full of money I've got in my hand      Oh I grew up believin' in Jesse and Frank   Cause I never had nothin' or no one to thank   And I came pretty close to unloadin' a bank   But I was saved by my draft board who made me a yank      Floatin' I'm floatin'...      And in the 101st they busted your hump   But they taught me a man isn't always a chump   In the course of Korea I learned how to jump   In the card game of life I was holdin' a trump      Floatin' I'm floatin'...      If you can't get a job and they think you're insane   If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain   And you wake up some mornin' with nothin' but pain   It was then I decided to grab me a plane      Floatin' I'm floatin'...      With all of my trainin' it wasn't too tough   Now I'm through takin' orders and all of their guff   Gonna buy a Rolls Royce and some luxury stuff   Cause a veteran's pension ain't nearly enough      Floatin' I'm floatin'...
