Indigo Girls Airplane song lyrics

Up on the airplane

Nearer my God to Thee

I start making a deal

Inspired by gravity (inspired by gravity)

If I did wrong, I won't do it again

Cause I can be sweet and good and nice

And if I had enemies, they're friends

I hold on, to my life, with the grip of a vice...

And I'm up the airplane (up on the airplane)

Nearer my God to Thee (nearer my God thee) (count on the plane)

I start making a deal

Inspired by gravity (inspired by gravity)

That little spot on the ground is my home town

Like to call it my home and it's sweet

I'd rather take a seat down there than a throne up here

Up above 30, 000 feet...

And I'm up on the airplane...

I never should've read my horoscope

Or the fortune on the bubblegum strip

Saying, "what you think won't happen will"

Great thing to read before a trip...

On an airplane...

Thought says the big blue sky's like a swimming pool

Big fluffy cloud's like a feather bed

But I'd rather have a real pillow underneath my head

Lying in my bed, which is in my hometown

Which is on the ground

Far from an airplane (My bed, my hometown)

Far from an airplane (On the ground. My bed, my hometown)

Far from an airplane (On the ground. My bed, my hometown)

On the airplane [On the ground] [I'll be making a deal]

I'm up on the airplane (On the ground) (I'll be making a deal)

On the airplane (I'll be making a deal)

(I'll be making a deal)

(I'll be making a deal)
