Airline to Heaven - Billy Bragg, Wilco

There’s an airline plane

Flies to Heaven everyday

Past the Pearly Gates

If you want to ride that train

Have your ticket in your hand

Before it’s too late

The world looks wrong

And your money’s spent and gone

And your friend has turned away

You can get away to Heaven

On this airplane

Just bow your head and pray

Them’s got ears, let them hear

Them’s got eyes, let them see

Turn your eyes to the Lord of the skies

Take this airline plane

It’ll take you home again

To your home behind the skies

Oh, a lot of people guess

Some say no and some say yes

Takes some and leave some behind

But you will surely know

When to the airport go

To leave your sins behind

Lot of speakers speak

Lot of preachers preach

When you lay their salary on the line

Well, the only earthly way

Is to bow your head and pray

You can fly to Heaven on time

Fly to Heaven on time

Them’s got ears, let them hear

Them’s got eyes, let them see

Turn your eyes to the Lord of the skies

And take that airline plane

It’ll take you home again

To your home behind the skies

Your ticket that you obtain

On this heavenly airline plane

To leave this world behind

You’ve got to make that flight

May be daytime, might be night

But you can’t see your way if you’re blind

Them’s got ears, let them hear

Them’s got eyes, let them see

Turn your eyes to the Lord of the skies

Take that airline plane

It’ll take you home again

To your home behind the skies
