Slade - (And The) Wheels Ain't Comin' Down - Текст песни

We were leavin' LA airport, me and Midlands Misery (Jimmy Lea) 


On an early mornin' plane flight out to some Radio XYZ


Was a 1950's prop job that had seen much better days


When we came on into the last approach, saw the runway thru the haze 


And the wheels ain't comin' down.


All of my nine lives passed before my eyes.


And the wheels ain't comin' down.


And you realise you wanna stay alive - you wanna stay alive


Women weepin' children playin' as we roared into a climb.


Men was playin', we were drinkin' lots and it never cost a dime.


Alter course for San Francisco, standin' by on red alert.


Gonna chance a landin' on the sea, hopin' nobody gets hurt. 


And the wheels ain't comin' down.


All of my nine lives passed before my eyes.


And the wheels ain't comin' down.


And you realise you wanna stay alive - you wanna stay alive


Wanna stay alive 


Stay alive 


We applauded Chuck the Captain, when our feet had touched the ground.


And I won't forget the moment he said, 'It's OK folks, the wheels are comin' down.' 


And the wheels they're comin' down


And you realise it's good to be alive


And the wheels they're comin' down


And you realise you're gonna still survive


It's good to be alive


S'good to be alive 


They're comin' down


They're comin'on down


They're comin'on down


They're comin'on down
