If you want my love tomorrow
you better give it up today
cause I ain't making many plans anymore
and I don't know how long i'll stay

well I felt like losin
was the only thing I could do
rebel rockets came screaming at me
pack up shop and look at the view

Now i'm like a jet plane
and I don't know my brother
don't know their pain
each one well tell you
the same damn thing
life is like a jet plane

the idea of tomorrow
is like powder from a gun
William comes to town and
shoots the mama down
still her kids they know time to run

life is like a jetplane
it's like a jetplane

feel the wings shining in the sunlight
feel the wings
oh like a jetplane.
