Flying Vic Chesnutt

Well most of the time I'm basically depressed
But I guess it's just my nature
Even those times that I'm sociable at best
I am damned with demure so I sit and stare at the clouds
Shattering cuss words 'cause I am too cool to pout

I'd rather be flying, I'd rather be flying
I'd rather be flying, I'd rather be flying, flying, flying

Well my father he worked for Eastern Airlines for nearly my whole life
Yes it disappeared right before his еyes
And so my Daddy up and died so I sit and stare at thе clouds
Shattering cuss words 'cause I am too cool to pout

I'd rather be flying, I'd rather be flying
I'd rather be flying, I'd rather be flying, flying, flying
