Travellin' Wings
I
I'm Howlin' Gram Coyote
And this here's Cactus Mal
We'll sing a song together
Cuz he's mah bestest pal
A song about mah darlin' all the way from Canaduh
An' this here song's especially for her
II
I'm headin' for the airport
To Arrivals at T3
Gonna meet mah darlin'
Cuz she's flyin' here to me
Soon as that gate opens we'll be standin' hand in hand
And I just can't wait for that plane to land
Chorus
That big old mean Atlantic
It just don't get in our way
We can fly across that ocean
Any time or any day
We'll always be together
Cinemas and Corrie Pings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
III
We're gonna have a good time
Fun and frivolity
Trippin' down to London
And maybe watch TV
Already been to Paris and we'll head for Amsterdam
And who knows where next? It's an open plan
Chorus
That big old mean Atlantic
It just don't get in our way
We can fly across that ocean
Any time or any day
We'll always be together
Cinemas and Corrie Pings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
IV
(spoken)
It'd be a different story
Going back three hundred years
I never would have met her
Back in those wild frontiers
I'd likely be arrested sneakin' in to Louisbourg
Those Frenches didn't like us much I've heard
Chorus
That big old mean Atlantic
It just don't get in our way
We can fly across that ocean
Any time or any day
We'll always be together
Cinemas and Corrie Pings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
V
For us to be together
Ain't as hard as it may seem
Though we're separated
By an ocean in-between
We just shrug off the problem like those unimportant things
We smile then we put on our Travellin' Wings
Chorus
That big old mean Atlantic
It just don't get in our way
We can fly across that ocean
Any time or any day
We'll always be together
Cinemas and Corrie Pings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
And it's all thank ya
To those Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
Travellin' Wings
I sure am grateful
To those Travellin' Wings
