When life down here's a thundercloud

I take off for the air

I soar above the madding crowd

Without a single care

I'm not one to stick around

When problems start to brew

So see you later, navigator

I know just what to do

CHORUS:

I'm gone (he's gonna fly)

I'm gone (adios, bye, bye)

Don't trouble me with troubles

Man, I'm gone (oh, he's gone)

I'm gone (wait a minute)

I'm gone (the sky's the limit)

I love to be above it all

I'm gone

My baby duck, she brings me luck

We dig each other's jive

I dip down low, and up she'll go

We never take a dive

And when I hear the engines roar

It thrills me to my soul

So hold on tight, I'm out of sight

Up here, I'm in control

CHORUS

(He's gone!) Oooh, yeah!

(He's gone!) Lay it on me, Jack!

(Don't trouble him with trouble, man, he's gone!)

(He's gone!) Solid, Jackson!

(He's gone!) You better believe it!

(He loves to be above it all, he's gone!)

(He's gone!)

It's my plane, Wayne (he's gone)

Check the wing, Bing (he's gone)

Pull the chock, Jock (he's gone)

Clear the way, Ray (he's gone)

Here I go, Flo (he's gone)

Watch the flack, Jack (he's gone)

Later, gator (he's gone)

CHORUS
