Treetop Flyer — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

[transcribed by sean c]

By stephen stills(? )

I could be a rambler from the seven dials

I dont pay taxes cause I never file

I dont do bidness that dont make me smile

I love my aeroplane cause shes got style



Im a treetop flyer

Treetop flyer



I fly any cargo that you can pay to run

The bush league pilots, they just cant get the job done

Youve got to fly down the canyon, dont never see the sun

Theres no such thing as an easy run



Im a treetop flyer

Treetop flyer



I fly low, Im in high demand

Go 15 feet over the rio grande

I blow the mesquite right up off the sand

Im seldon seen, specially when I land



Im a treetop flyer

Born survivor



Now people been askin me whered you learn to fly that way

Was over in vietnam, chasin the nva

The government taught me, and they taught me right

Stay down below the treeline and youll be alright



Im a treetop flyer

Born survivor



So Im comin home, Im runnin low and fast

Promised my woman this is gonna be my last

I get the ship down, I tie her fast

And then some old boy wakes up, and he says, "hey son,

Wanna make some fast cash? "



Im a treetop flyer



Well theres things I am

And theres things I am not

Yes Im a smuggler and I could get shot

I aint gonna die, I aint going to get caught

You see Im a flying fool, and this aeroplane is, whoo, hot



Im a treetop flyer

Born survivor

Workin alone
