Treetop Flyer

(专辑： Live At Shepherd's Bush - 2009)

I could be a rambler from the seven dials
I don't pay taxes 'cause I never file
I don't do business that don't make me smile
I love my aeroplane 'cause she's got style
I'm a treetop flyer

I'll fly any cargo, that you can pay to run the bush league pilots, they just can't get the job done
Got to fly down into the canyon, ya' don't ever see the sun
There's no such thing as an easy run
For a treetop flyer
I'm flying low, I'm in high demand

Go fifteen feet over the Rio Grande
I'll blow the mesquite right up of off the sand
Seldom seen, especially when I land
I'm a treetop flyer

People been asking me, "Where'd you learn to fly that way?"
Ot was over in Vietnam, chasing NVA
The government taught me, and they taught me right,
Stay down, under the treeline, you might be alright
Treetop flyer

So I'm coming home, I'm running low and fast
I promised my woman this is gonna be my last
I get the ship down, I tie her fast
Then some old boy walks up, and he says "Hey son" wanna' make some fast cash?
I'm a treetop flyer

Well there's things I am, and there's things I'm not
I am a smuggler and I could get shot
I ain't going to die, I ain't going to get caught,
See I'm a flying fool, in an aeroplane that's just too hot
I'm a treetop flyer
Born survivor
I usually work alone
