My man's a pilot on the Birmingham airplane line I say my man's a pilot on the Birmingham airplane line When he comes to see me, my man sure comes a flying I know that my flying man ain't true to me I know that my flying man ain't true to me But he's as true as any man can be He takes me flying, flying, right up to the sky He takes me flying, flying, right up to the sky When I'm riding with my man, lord, he rides me so high
First he turns me over then he starts to loop the loop First he turns me over then he starts to loop the loop Takes a long long time till his wings begin to droop He flies me slow, he flies me fast And I'm hoping, I'm praying he don't run out of gas So if he ain't true, there's nothing I'm gonna say Cause I ain't gonna let a man that good fly away
