How does this work?
Caution: You are now annotating this song as
[Verse 1]
Well, they said it was the cheapest fare at this time of year
And they said, it's nice and safe, you got nothing to fear
So I will take this old plane to get to you
Yes, I will take this old plane to get to you

[Verse 2]
Twenty minutes late the plane crashes down
And I'm one of three left amongst a priest and a clown
And then all I can hear is the hiss of the track
I said, why the hell not and I jump on the back
And I will take this old train to get to you
Yes, I will take this old train to get to you

[Verse 3]
She said, get off my train, you dirty hobo
And I tried to explain but it was a no go
It was a no go for this hobo
He said for fifty bucks, I could take it
He was sure that this lemon could make it
So I will take this old car to get to you
Yes, I will take this old car to get to you

[Verse 4]
Couple miles out of this old part of town
My engine explodes with a horrible sound
But I will take these old shoes to get to you
Yes, I will take these old shoes to get to you
Oh, I will take these old shoes to get to you
Yes, I will take these old shoes to get to you
