First Class Lyrics

I packed my bag this morning, I squeeze that girl goodbye
Went out to the airport, a real good day to fly
I check in at the counter, oh lucky, lucky day
Mr. Roth, she said, I've got you sittin in 1A

I'm going First Class, goin First Class today
I'm sittin in the front, I got the ticket in my hand
I'm goin' First Class, baby, hope you understand

I thought for just a minute, this must be some mistake
But when she came round with that wine, my will began to break
He offered me a menu, I thought I would examine
I passed on the filet mignon and settled for the salmon, it was

First Class, first class all the way
I got salt and pepper shakers, I am drinkin from a glass
They got my sweatshirt on a hanger, I am sittin in first class

Well it don't mean I don't love ya when you're sittin back in coach
I won't think lesser of ya when I'm makin my approach
Oh, my landing gear is greasy and your runway's outsasight
Gimme some clearance from your tower, babe
I'm touchin down tonight

I got a little buzz on, I'm reading on the tray
The Seven Laws of Money, sure I'll have more chardonnay
They got flowers in the bathroom, the toilet seat is wood
Walk right in and sit right down, I tell you life is good

When you're in First Class, first Class all the way
I'll have a double tall expresso and I think I'll take it black
And while you're up, another round for everyone in back
Would you tell that screamin baby that I'm tryin to take a nap
I am a fool for living largely, whaddya think of that

Today's the 25th Anniversary of Neil Armstrong's first step on the moon
Twenty five years from now I'll sing my kids this little tune
I'll tell 'em how they treat you when you're sittin' in 1A
And how no matter where you sit in life
You should be treated the same way

I'm talkin 'bout First Class
First Class all the way every day
Now I'm doin unto others just the way they do to me
Just a little extra lovin and some common courtesy
Every woman, man and child, oh I tell you it's a gas
When you plunk your little bottom down
Right up there in First Class
