《The Poor Co-Pilot》歌词

[00:00:00] The Poor Co-Pilot - Oscar Brand

[00:00:03] Oh I'm a co-pilot I sit on the right

[00:00:07] I'm quick and courageous I'm wonderf'ly bright

[00:00:10] My job is remembring what the captain forgets

[00:00:14] And I never talk back so I have no regrets

[00:00:17] I'm a lousy co-pilot and a long way from home

[00:00:24] I make out the flight-plan and study the weather

[00:00:27] Pull up the gear drop it and stand by to feather

[00:00:30] I make out his mail-forms I hire his whores

[00:00:33] And I fly his old crate to the tune of his snores

[00:00:37] I'm a lousy co-pilot and a long way from home

[00:00:44] I make out the flight-plan according to Hoyle

[00:00:47] I take all the readings I check on the oil

[00:00:50] I hustle him out for the midnight alarm

[00:00:53] I fly through the fog while he sleeps on my arm

[00:00:57] I'm a lousy co-pilot and a long way from home

[00:01:03] I treat him to coffee I keep him in cokes

[00:01:07] I laugh at his corn and his horrible jokes

[00:01:10] And once in a while when his landings are rusty

[00:01:14] I come through with yesiree captain it's gusty

[00:01:16] I'm a lousy co-pilot and a long way from home

[00:01:23] All in all I'm commissioned a general stooge

[00:01:26] I sit on the right of this high flying scrooge

[00:01:30] Someday I'll make captain and then I'll be blessed

[00:01:33] I'll give my poor tongue one long hell of a rest

[00:01:37] I'm a lousy co-pilot and a long way from home
