Well, I dreamt I went away
On a steam powered aereoplane
I went and I stayed and I 
Damn near didn't come back again

 

I didn't go very fast 
In a steam powered aereoplane
Oh, the wheel went around and up and down
And inside and then back again

 

Chorus
Sittin' on a 747 just a watchin' them clouds roll by
Can't tell if it's sunshine or if it's rain, rain, rain
Rather be a sittin' in a deck chair high up over Kansas City
On a genuine, ol' fashioned, authentic, steam powered aereoplane

 

Well I'd like to be a pilot on a steam powered aereoplane
Well, I'd pull that pilot wheel around and then back again
And I'd wear a blue hat, yeah that says 'steam powered aereoplane'
With letters that go 'round the brim and then back again

Chorus
