Lyrics to Wheels Ain't Coming Down

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
