Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up in Brooklyn
With a frown upon my face
Just left Wisconsin
Where there's cheese enough to start this rat race
But thanks to the Brothers Wright
We don't know where we'll sleep tonight
Yeah, I'm a bird in the skies
And tomorrow when I rise
[Verse 2]
I'll wake up in Paris
With a new love in my heart
Or maybe Germany
With that brand new pet I met in Stuttgart
Sky's the limit, it's time to play
I'll put down roots some other day
No need to be a lonely Joe
The jet set is the only way to go
[Verse 3]
Would ya like new music and mystery
Each and every day
Lose the same ol' music and history
Make a new friend then fly away
[Verse 4]
And wake up in Texas
Where they treat their women right
And then try Hollywood
Where the stars get lit out in broad daylight
[Verse 5]
Any city, near or far
Feels twice as good as where you are
When you're sick of the status quo
The jet set is the only way to go
[Verse 6]
Would ya like a sleigh ride, a hay ride?
Then kiddo, just stay at home
But, if you want jet set
Then get set
To leave behind Kansas, there's no place like Rome
Wake up in Rio
Have your coffee in Brazil
When real life gets you down
Take a far out one way trip to Splitsville
[Verse 7]
Swedish, Greek, or Japanese
A stewardess is trained to please
So if you've got what it takes below
Well, then fly this bird like Cupid's bow
'Cause the jet set's just a holiday
Yeah, the jet set's goes up up and away
So fly
[Verse 8]
Right down to Italy, for la bella femmina
Jump in a fountain for a big ol'd dose of la dolce vita
If your tastes run more risque
Well then we know a joint in old Bombay
So hang on tight, let's loop do loop
It's time to fly this chicken coop
So, pack up your suitcase
Check your worries at the gate
Come out and play, boy
Cruise the world to find your perfect playmate
Things look better from above
So buckle up, next stop is love
[Verse 9]
From Timbuktu to Tokyo
From Mozambique to Mexico
Yeah, the jet set is the only way to go
