Artist/Band: The Byrds
Lyrics for Song: Bag Full Of Money
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Byrds



Floating, I'm floating on down through the sky

Never had no ambition to learn how to fly

I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land

With this bag full of money I've got in my hand



Oh, I grew up believing in Jesse and Frank

'Cause I never had nothin' or none to thank

And I came pretty close to unloadin' a bank

But I was saved by my draft board who made me a yank



Floating, I'm floating on down through the sky

Never had no ambition to learn how to fly

I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land

With this bag full of money I've got in my hand



And in the 101st they busted your hump

But they taught me a man isn't always a chump

In the course of Korea I learned how to jump

In the card game of life I was holding a trump



Floating, I'm floating on down through the sky

Never had no ambition to learn how to fly

I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land

With this bag full of money I've got in my hand



If you can't get a job and they think you're insane

If the years of your youth have been washed down the drain

And you wake up some mornin' with nothin' but pain

It was then I decided to grab me a plane



Floating, I'm floating on down through the sky

Never had no ambition to learn how to fly

I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land

With this bag full of money I've got in my hand



With all of my training it wasn't too tough

Now I'm through taking orders and all of their guff

Gonna buy a Rolls Royce and some luxury stuff

'Cause a veteran's pension ain't nearly enough



Floating, I'm floating on down through the sky

Never had no ambition to learn how to fly

I'll be glad when it's over and ready to land

With this bag full of money I've got in my hand
