United Airlines

UNITED AIRLINES

Worked hard all summer making good money,
Baby's waiting back in L.A.
But I love to shake the devil's bones,
And you can't save much money that way.

She called me this morning while I was still sleepin',
Dreaming I was hot with the dice.
When she told me what was wrong,
I said: "I'm flying home to see you tonight."

But United Airlines wants four hundred dollars:
I've only got ninety saved up.
The girl at the desk sure wasn't impressed,
When I told her about my bad luck.
United Airlines, you're breaking us up.

Baby, she told me she knew it would hurt me,
To hear what she was gonna say.
Her love for me was breaking down:
Too long I've been too far away.

Too much shaking elbows in all those casinos,
Playin' till my money was gone.
I'll bet I lose my baby as well,
If I'm not on the next plane home.

But United Airlines wants four hundred dollars:
I've only got ninety saved up.
The girl at the desk sure wasn't impressed,
When I told her about my bad luck.
United Airlines, you're breaking us up.
