Once upon a time, I took an airplane 
I went to San Diego, California 
That was a three hour trip 
I've enjoyed myself, flying in the air

While I was in the air, I had fun 
The airplane was at an altitude 
Of 35,000 feet, it was a long trip 
It was a fun flight

The people on the airplane were nice 
I chatted with them a lot 
I was having a fun time 
It was a good flight
