(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

Line up your hood ornament with the highway honey
Turn on your radio they'll be playing our song
Congratulations are over we're heading for clover
Chasin' the big time being young

(And you gotta)
Hang on to your airplane honey
Let it lift you up don't let it hang you in the sky
Life is like a fast train comin'
Catch you standin' still
It'll pass you by

Some folks just sit around the house and do nothing
Some people can't lose some people can't win
There's a man on the street
He got something to sell you
Listen to his story
Don't let him take you in

(And you gotta)
Hang on to your airplane honey
Let it lift you up don't let it hang you in the sky
Life is like a fast train comin'
Catch you standin' still
It'll pass you by

No matter were you stand there's another side
And I wanna find it with you
Rockin' the boat still keep it afloat
Honeymoon me and I'll honeymoon you

When we're much older and the world's on our shoulders
I wanna be glad for all that we've done
I'll sit beside you sweet lullaby you
Livin' in our dreams still being young

(And you gotta)
Hang on to your airplane honey
Let it lift you up don't let it hang you in the sky
Life is like a fast train comin'
Catch you standin' still
It'll pass you by
