Jet engines thunder, I'm on the road
Into the sky, fly me home
I'll play my music 'cause I love the night
But home is my road's end
And it's almost in sight (Chorus)
Southern seas I'll be a-rowin'
Ocean mist will fill the air
No more weight will I be towin'
I can't believe I'm almost there Southern wind keep on blowin'
Sing your warm and sunny song
Straight ahead is where I'm goin'
Straight back home where I belong. Through clouds of amber into the sun
Back to the Southland I'm on the run
Big bird a-fly me over my hometown
Take me over my backyard
And let me down. (Chorus) I can see the runway in front of me
My legs are restless I'll soon be free
This plane's a-landin' in the "Sunshine State"
Friendly people, sunny weather
How I can't wait (Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus)
