Lyrics

We were flying high
In heaven
Dancing in the sky
Seven O seven
Grooving over Boston
Down into New York
Along that Atlantic seaboard
Miami watch me work
Suddenly I heard the captain
Saying we'd lost control
The instruments weren't responding
The altitude couldn't hold
Somebody save us
Somebody save us
Somebody save us
Somebody save us
Mayday you gotta get this thing turned around
Mayday you gotta get my feet back on the ground
We were bound for Rio
Where the samba's hot
With a stopover in Havana
To get my salsa shot
Suddenly it all went south y'all
We were being thrown to and fro
The attendants said stay calm now
But their blood was running cold
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
Mayday you gotta get this thing turned around
Mayday you gotta get my feet on the ground
Mayday Lord knows I'm too young to go
Mayday well I can't fly and I can't float
The ground was rising fast
So fast
I said my prayers doomed
That was that
The pilot tried one last restart
The engines began to move
Oh sweet elevation
Our attitude had improved
I kept my seatbelt buckled
Till we landed in Baton Rouge
Then I was dancing
Then I was dancing
Mayday you gotta get this thing turned around
Mayday you gotta get my feet back on the ground
Mayday Lord knows I'm too young to go
Mayday I can't fly and I can't float
Let me tell ya
