Billy Bragg And Wilco - Airline To Heaven lyrics

rate me

There's an airline plane<br />

Flies to heaven everyday<br />

Past the pearly gates<br />

If you want to ride this train<br />

Have your ticket in your hand<br />

Before it's too late<br />

<br />

If the world looks wrong<br />

And your money's spent and gone<br />

Your friend has turned away<br />

You can get away to Heaven<br />

On this aeroplane<br />

Just bow your head and pray<br />

<br />

Them's got ears, let them hear<br />

Them's got eyes, let them see<br />

Turn your eyes to the Lord of the skies<br />

Take this airline plane<br />

It'll take you home again<br />

To your home behind the skies<br />

<br />

Well a lot of people guess<br />

Some say no and some say yes<br />

Will take some and leave some behind?<br />

But you will surely know<br />

When to the airport go<br />

To leave this world behind<br />

<br />

Oh, a lot of speakers speak<br />

A lot of preachers preach<br />

When you lay their salary on the line<br />

You can hold your head and pray<br />

It's the only earthly way<br />

You can fly to Heaven on time<br />

Fly to Heaven on time<br />

<br />

Them's got ears, let them hear<br />

Them's got eyes, let them see<br />

Turn your eyes to the Lord of the skies<br />

Take that airline plane<br />

It'll take you home again<br />

To your home behind the skies<br />

<br />

Your ticket you obtain<br />

On this Heavenly airline plane<br />

You leave your sins behind<br />

You've got to take this flight<br />

It may be daytime, might be night<br />

But you can't see your way if you're blind<br />

<br />

Them's got ears, let them hear<br />

Them's got eyes, let them see<br />

Turn your eyes to the Lord of the skies<br />

Take that airline plane<br />

It'll take you home again<br />

To your home behind the skies
