Floatin', I'm floatin' on down through the sky
I never had no ambition to learn how to fly
Be glad when it's over and happy to land
With this bag full of money I've got in my hand
Oh, I grew up believin' in Jesse and Frank
'Cause I never had nothin' or no one to thank
And I came pretty close to unloading a bank
But was saved by my draft board who made me a yank
In the 101st they busted your hump
But they taught me a man isn't always a chump
In the course of Korea I learned how to jump
In the card game of life I was holding a trump
Floatin', I'm floatin' on down through the sky
I never had no ambition to learn how to fly
Be glad when it's over and happy to land
With this 500.000 I've got in my hand

Whoa, if you can't get a job and they think you're insane
If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain
And you wake up one mornin' with nothin' but pain
It was then I decided to grab me a plane
With all of my training it wasn't too tough
Now I'm through taking orders and taking their guff
Gonna buy a Rolls Royce and some luxury stuff
'Cause a veteran's pension ain't nearly enough
Floatin', I'm floatin' on down through the sky
I never had no ambition to learn how to fly
Be glad when it's over and happy to land
With this bag full of money I've got in my hand
With this 500.000 I've got in my hand
