Flying high at thirty thousand miles Eating salty pretzels while I'm seated by the aisle The woman I'm in love with is on my mind It's no big deal I'm flying for like the thousandth time When that plane starts shaking like at Etch A Sketch erasing You remember you're just flesh and bone And you go from relaxing to the opposite of that shit And you wonder if you'll ever make it home Lord put your hands this big old jet And carry us to safety through this wind We all gotta die sometime but I'm ready to go yet I just wanna see my baby again The turbulence was worse than I've ever felt The plane dropped, the lights went out and all the people screamed and yelled I'm glad I told my sweet love that I loved her in that last text And I'm hoping that won't be the last text from me that she ever gets When that plane starts rocking, you don't have no other option But to sit there and just hold onto your seat And I'm not one for praying but I found myself saying These words to whom I might be about to meet I said Lord put your hands this big old jet And carry us to safety through this wind We all gotta die sometime but I'm ready to go yet I just wanna see my baby again Those two minutes felt like an hour But the pilot finally regained power He got on the intercom and said [*psht*] we're in the clear But you could tell by his trembling voice he also felt that fear And when we finally touched down on the land Couples kissed, strangers hugged, and everybody clapped their hands We were happy that everything, it went right, speaking of which Shoutout to Orville and Wilbur for the miracle of flight When that plane starts twitching like it's having withdrawal symptoms You realize how fragile we all are I left the airport quickly and my girl was there to get me And I've never been so happy to see her car I guess God put those hands around that big old jet And carried us to safety through that wind We all gotta die sometime but I wasn't ready to go just yet And I got to see my baby again
