Jet Pilot Lyrics - Okemah And The Melody Of Riot - Son Volt

Jet pilot for the day 

Washed his sins away 

Loves to see the Rangers play 

His daddy has a job in Washington 

Wants to raise a Harvard son 

Junior liked to let his hair down 

Only trouble is, word gets around 

Revolution will be televised 

Across living rooms 

And the great divide 

Robbing barren ghettos 

For us now 

Everybody needs a hunting ground 

Jet Pilot flown away 

Got a passing grade 

Made it to the world stage 

A hemisphere away 

Death is on display 

The sins would never wash away 

Junior liked to let his hair down 

Only trouble is, word gets around 

Revolution will be televised 

Across living rooms 

And the great divide 

Robbing barren ghettos 

For us now 

Everybody needs a hunting ground 

Junior liked to let his hair down 

Only trouble is, word gets around
