northwest þarký sözü

i´m a strummin´ fool out in the sticks
for the glory and the bread
and you´re wise enough to let me sing
this music in my head.
and if there´s any way to get there
strumming head on out
i go driven hard to pick up old
222 en route.

but now they´ve gone and cancelled
old northwest 222
it´s a late night bird that always
brought me back home to you
there´s a thousand miles between us
babe that i cannot get through
is there nothing left to count on, now
that old 222 is gone?
old 222 is gone.

my guitar bouncin´ on my shoulder, my
ticket in my hand
i´m runnin´ on the ramp on board, i just
made it again
pull pillows down and a blanket and i
stretch out ´cross the seat
yes i´m racked our, winging homeward
where i got this dream to keep

but now they´ve gone and cancelled
old northwest 222
it´s a late night bird that always
brought me back home to you
there´s a thousand miles between us
babe that i cannot get through
is there nothing left to count on, now
that old 222 is gone?
old 222 is gone.

minneapolis at 1 am chicago at 3
it´s detroit at 5 the it´s new york city
where she´s waitin´ for me

and i come chargin´ off the jet way the
dream is in my eyes
when i see you there at curbside babe
i´m kissin´ you at sunrise
yes you brought the van to get me.
sometime when the plane is late
we would find a place for parking
when the lovin´ would not wait

but now they´ve gone and cancelled
old northwest 222
it´s a late night bird that always
brought me back home to you
there´s a thousand miles between us
babe that i cannot get through
is there nothing left to count on, now
that old 222 is gone?
old 222 is gone.
