| In the early mornin rain |
| With a dollar in my hand |
| With an achin in my heart |
| And my pockets full of sand |
| Im a long way from home |
| And I missed my loved on so In the early mornin rain |
| And no place to go Out on runway number nine |
| Big seven-o-seven set to go Well, Im stuck here on the ground |
| Where the cold winds blow |
| The liquor tasted good |
| And the women all were fast |
| There she goes, my friend |
| Shes a rollin down at last |
| Here the mighty engines roar |
| See the silver bird on high |
| Shes away in westward bound |
| Far above the clouds shell fly |
| Where the mornin rain dont fall |
| And the sun always shines |
| Shell be flyin over my home |
| In about three hours time |
| This old airports got me down |
| Its no earthly good to me cause Im stuck here on the ground |
| Cold and drunk as I might be You cant hop a jet plane |
| Like you can a freight train |
| So I best be on my way |
| In the early mornin rain |
