Floatin' I'm floatin' on down through the sky Never had no ambition to learn how to fly I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land With this bag full of money I've got in my hand Oh I grew up believin' in Jesse and Frank Cause I never had nothin' or no one to thank And I came pretty close to unloadin' a bank But I was saved by my draft board who made me a yank And in the 101st they busted your hump But they taught me a man isn't always a chump In the course of Korea I learned how to jump In the card game of life I was holdin' a trump Floatin' I'm floatin'... on down through the sky If you can't get a job and they think you're insane If the years of your youth have been washed down the train And you wake up some mornin' with nothin' but pain It was then I decided to grab me a plane With all of my trainin' it wasn't too tough Now I'm through takin' orders and all of their guff Gonna buy a Rolls Royce and some luxury stuff Cause a veteran's pension ain't nearly enough
