Woke up in Brooklyn with a frown upon my face Just left Wisconsin where there’s cheese enough to start this rat race But thanks to the Brothers Wright We don’t know where we’ll sleep tonight Yes, I’m a bird in the skies and tomorrow when I rise
I’ll wake up in Paris with a new love in my heart Or maybe Germany with that brand new pet I met in Stuttgart Sky’s the limit, time to play I’ll put down roots some other day No need to be a lonely Joe The jet is the only way to go
Would’ja like new music and mystery each and every day Lose the same old music and history Make a new friend then fly away
And wake up in Texas where they’ll treat their women right And then try Hollywood where the stars get lit out in broad daylight
And city, near or far feels twice as good as where you are When you’re sick of the status quo the jet set is the only way to go
PILOTS Would’ja like a sleigh ride? A hayride? Then kiddo, just stay home But, if you want jet set then get set to leave behind Kansas There’s no place like Rome
