Songtexte Night Flyer - Blue Öyster Cult

Hard working man, on the train, underpaid
This ain't the living I see in my dreams
The ex night pilot walks up to here
And listened to the man who whispered in his ear

(Why don't you step outside?) He couldn't believe what he said
(Leave the world behind) Well, I could use the bread
(Just a little joy-ride) It'll only take one night
(Across the other side) I guess once is all right

Night Flyer
Night Flyer
Night Flyer
On a midnight flight

Work in the hills was a piece of cake
But trusting the man was a big mistake
He tried to play me for the fool
Now the guns have spoken
And his body's cool

(Another step outside) I couldn't believe he was dead
(Leave the world behind) I didn't use my head
(Just a little joy-ride) It'll only take one night
(Across the other side) I guess once is alright

Night Flyer
Night Flyer
Night Flyer
On a midnight flight

Night Flyer
Night Flyer
Night Flyer

This time tomorrow
I'll be savin' late
Turning the kids already got an old plate
I know she'd never understand
About gettin' away with five hundred grand

(And he stepped outside) Get rid of the car
(Leave that world behind) And he opened the door
(If they let him go) I turned the key
(Don't let him go) Ya' not flashin' by me

Night Flyer
(Step Outside)
(Leave the world behind)
(Step Outside)
(Leave the world behind)
(Step Outside)
(Leave the world behind)
(Step Outside)
(Leave the world behind)
(Step Outside)
(Leave the world behind)
