Текст Paul Brandt – I’m Gonna Fly

7 years old in my radio flyer
red cape tied around my neck
top of Thompson’s hill, Billy said I was a liar
and now I’m scared half to death

I’m gonna fly
Defying space and gravity
I’m gonna fly
Billy just you wait and see

I was just a kid, barely 18 years
And I couldn’t wait to graduate
Confident and cocky, and man, it really got me
When I heard my daddy say
“you oughta get some knowledge, you gotta go to college,
gotta make something of your life.”
But I had to do it my way, so I headed for the highway
And I followed those little white lines

I’m gonna fly
Defying space and gravity
I’m gonna fly
Making my own destiny

I crashed and burned, but I don’t regret it
You only fail when you don’t try
Gonna brush off the ashes and just forget it
I’m ain’t perfect yet but you can bet someday I’m gonna get my wings and fly

I’m gonna fly
Defying space and gravity
