In the early mornin' rain           Out on runway number nine
With a dollar in my hand            Big seven-o-seven set to go
With an achin' in my heart          But I'm stuck here in the grass
And my pockets full of sand         Where the cold wind blows
I'm a long way from home            Now the liquor tasted good
And I miss my loved ones so         And the women all were fast
In the early mornin' rain           Well there she goes my friend
With no place to go                 She's rollin now at last

Hear the mighty engines roar        This old airport's got me down
See the silver bird on high         It's no earthly good to me
She's away and westward bound       Cause I'm stuck here on the ground
Far above the clouds she'll fly     As cold and drunk as I can be
Where the mornin' rain don't fall   You can't jump a jetplane
And the sun always shines           Like you can a freight train
She'll be flyin' o'er my home       So I'd best be on my way
In about three hours time           In the early mornin' rain
