Lyrics

[00:13.492] Woke up in brooklyn with a frown upon my face
[00:19.631] Just left Wisconsin where there's cheese enough to start this rat race
[00:25.352] But thanks to the Brothers Wright
[00:28.251] We don't know where we'll sleep tonight
[00:31.360] Yeah, I'm a bird in the skies
[00:34.651] And tomorrow when I rise
[00:37.316] I'll wake up in Paris with a new love in my heart
[00:44.029] or maybe Germany with that brand new pet I met in Stuttgart
[00:50.011] Skies the limit, time to play
[00:52.937] I'll put down roots some other day
[00:55.967] No need to be a lonely Joe
[00:58.867] The jet-set is the only way to go
[01:07.122] Would ya like new music and mystery
[01:11.693] Each and everyday
[01:13.182] Lose the same old music and history
[01:17.623] Make a new friend then fly away, and...
[01:20.888] Wake up in Texas where they treat their women right
[01:26.922] And then try Hollywood where the stars get lit out in broad daylight
[01:33.087] Any city, near or far feels twice as good as where you are
[01:38.886] When you're sick of the status quo
[01:42.021] The jet-set is the only way to go
[01:50.433] would ya like a sleigh ride, a hayride?
[01:54.220] Then kiddo, just stay home
[01:56.467] But if you want jet-set then get set to
[02:00.725] Leave behind Kansas there's no place like Rome
[02:03.938] Wake up in Rio have your coffee in Brazil
[02:10.129] When real life gets you down
[02:12.558] Take a far-out, one-way trip to Splitzville
[02:16.163] Swedish, Greek or Japanese
[02:19.011] A stewadess is trained to please
[02:21.884] So if you've got what it takes below
[02:24.888] Well then fly this bird like Cupid's bow
[02:27.892] 'Cause the jet set's just a holiday
[02:31.184] Yeah the jet set goes up, up and away
[02:34.188] So fly!
[02:35.024] Right down to Italy for la bella femina
[02:40.875] Jump in a fountain
[02:43.043] woo!
[02:43.461] For a big dose of la dolce vita
[02:47.014] If your tastes run more risque
[02:50.645] Well then, we know a joint in old Bombay
[02:52.839] So hang on tight let's loop de loop
[02:56.836] It's time to fly this chicken coop
[02:58.900] So pack up your suitcase check your worries at the gate
[03:05.456] Come out and play boy cruise the world to find your perfect playmate
[03:11.595] Things look better from above so
[03:14.651] Buckle up, next stop is love
[03:17.394] From Timbuktu to Tokyo from Mozambique to Mexico
[03:23.977] Yeah, the jet-set is the only way to go
[03:30.037] Babbada bop boop bah badooba doo-oh!
