Hey, Mr. Pilot Man Lyrics

(Hoyt Axton)

"Hoyt Axton, ladies and gentlemen.
The big one: Hey Mr Pilot Man."

Hey, Mr Pilot Man, if you would an' if you can
Get me to Atlanta before dawn
Hey, Mr Pilot Man, please try to understand
In the mornin' she'll be gone.

My brother called three hours ago
Said there's somethin' I should know
Said that in the mornin' she'll be gone
I caught the fastest plane I could
All the way from Hollywood
An' I've just got to see her 'fore she goes.

I'm singin': Hey Mr Pilot Man
If you would an' if you can
Get me to Atlanta before dawnHoyt Axton - Hey, Mr. Pilot Man - http://motolyrics.com/hoyt-axton/hey-mr-pilot-man-lyrics.html
Hey, Mr Pilot Man, please try to understand
In the mornin' she'll be gone.

Well, I'm feelin' mighty bad
She's the only Mom I had
And I never really showed my love
If you'll only get me there
Then she'll know I really care
Before she goes to Heaven up above.

I'm singin': Hey, Mr Pilot Man
If you would an' if you can
Get me to Atlanta before dawn
Hey, Mr Pilot Man, please try to understand
In the mornin' she'll be gone.

In the mornin' she'll be gone...
