Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I was down in L.A. Town when our manager said, jump.

I threw my clothes and my saxophone in a two by

four-bit trunk.

I pushed it to the airport, and I ran to the ticket line..

man said, 'Son, you could have saved the run, those aiplanes

just quit flyin.'

Chorus

If I can't leave here, I just might stay..

and that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home.

I ran through the terminal building to fly by my airline.

The man said I could ride the wing, and I said that was fine.

He said, 'I'll confirm your reservation and put the plane on

hold.'

He come back and said, 'Sorry, but that wing space just been

sold.'

Chorus

If I can't leave here, I just might stay..

and that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home.

I walked into the washroom and I built myself a fire..

threw on lots of paper and the flames kept gettin' higher.

The janitor come runnin' in, so scared his face was white..

so, I explained my situation, he said, 'That's all right.'

Chorus

If I can't leave here, I just might stay..

and that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home.

Next day I thought that I would leave, so I packed

my things again.

I waited fourteen hours for a taxi to come in.

I spotted one that wasn't full, and I threw myself in fast.

The driver said, 'I'm sorry, but this taxi's out of gas!'

Chorus

If I can't leave here, I just might stay..

and that L.A. flyway is goin' to be my home.
