[00:13.50]In the early morning rain without a penny in my hand
[00:23.10]With an achin' in my heart and my pockets full of sand
[00:32.64]I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
[00:42.20]In the early morning rain with no place to go
[00:51.77]Out on runway number nine, big seven-o-seven set to go
[01:01.43]But I'm stuck here on the ground where the cold winds blows
[01:11.05]But the whiskey tasted good and the women were all fast
[01:20.74]There she goes my friend, oh she's rollin' down at last
[01:30.18]Hear the mighty engines roar, see the silver bird on high
[01:39.75]She's away and westward bound high above the cloud she'll fly
[01:49.46]Where the early rain don't fall and the sun always shines
[01:58.87]She'll be flyin' o'er my home in about three hours time
[02:08.36]This old airport's got me down, it's no earthly use to me
[02:18.29]'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground, cold and drunk as I might be
[02:27.81]You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train
[02:37.41]So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain
[02:46.94]So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain
[03:51.91]
