Floatin' I'm Floatin' On Down Through The Sky

Never Had No Ambition To Learn How To Fly

I'll Be Glad When It's Over And Ready To Land

With This Bag Full Of Money I've Got In My Hand



Oh I Grew Up Believin' In Jesse And Frank

Cause I Never Had Nothin' Or No One To Thank

And I Came Pretty Close To Unloadin' A Bank

But I Was Saved By My Draft Board Who Made Me A Yank



Floatin' I'm Floatin'...



And In The 101st They Busted Your Hump

But They Taught Me A Man Isn't Always A Chump

In The Course Of Korea I Learned How To Jump

In The Card Game Of Life I Was Holdin' A Trump



Floatin' I'm Floatin'...



If You Can't Get A Job And They Think You're Insane

If The Years Of Your Youth Have Been Washed Down The Drain

And You Wake Up Some Mornin' With Nothin' But Pain

It Was Then I Decided To Grab Me A Plane



Floatin' I'm Floatin'...



With All Of My Trainin' It Wasn't Too Tough

Now I'm Through Takin' Orders And All Of Their Guff

Gonna Buy A Rolls Royce And Some Luxury Stuff

Cause A Veteran's Pension Ain't Nearly Enough



Floatin' I'm Floatin'...
