sparrella 0 #1 May 7, 2008 I'M GONNA JUMP OUT OF A PLANE TODAY Words by Steven Parrella Thanks to William Lovelace Melody by henry Tolman (When Johnny Comes Marching Home) I’m gonna jump out of a plane today, Hurrah--Hurrah I checked my gear and it’s OK, Hurrah--Hurrah The pins are set and my straps are tight I touched all my handles and they feel all right So we’ll all be safe while sky-di-ving today I practice emergencies in my head, Hurrah--Hurrah Cause if you don’t you could get dead, Hurrah--Hurrah I’ll pop my reserve while I’m nice and high If you hesitate, you could run out of sky So we’ll all be safe while sky-di-ving today My canopy opens straight and true, Hurrah--Hurrah You look for me and I’ll look for you, Hurrah--Hurrah Parachutes flying around everywhere I think I’ll do the Linda Blair So we’ll all be safe while sky-di-ving today A few more things that you should know, Hurrah--Hurrah Chicks are hot and beer is cold, Hurrah--Hurrah And the ground is hard, so I’ve been told Don’t start your turn late if you want to grow old So we’ll all be safe while sky-di-ving today (slowly) The last jumper’s down and he’s packed his gear, Hurrah--Hurrah He jumped from the plain with out doubt or fear, Hurrah--Hurrah And his family’s at home wishing that he was near But he’ll probably go out and start drinking beer So we’ll all be safe while sky-di-ving today The greatest enemy of the truth is not a lie, the greatest enemy of the truth is a myth.
