Lyrics
'Island Hopping Dream'/W Mark L Berry&T.C. Elliott Copyright © Lyrics: Mark L Berry/Music: Nadia Cripps2011. I packed my bags Left my winter coat Went to find my wings Left my folks a note Bought a one-way pass For S-J-U Don't know where I'll end up But before I'm thru I'm coming back as crew I'm only coming back When I wear wings too (chorus) The hardest part about any job is getting it The hardest part of any dream is forgetting it And if my dream takes longer than expected And if it feels like I'm endlessly rejected I'm gonna do what I have to do Still I'm gonna do what I have to do So I became an airport rat Begging to interview Every pilot that I ran into Is your airline hiring? I want to know Who will be acquiring More planes and grow? I want to be an F-O Co-piloto quiero yo (2nd chorus) The hardest part about any job is getting it The hardest part of any dream is forgetting it And if my dream takes longer than expected And if it feels like I'm endlessly rejected I'm gonna do what I have to do Still I'm gonna do what I have to do (bridge) There are DC-3s And Briton Norman Islanders The Seaplane Shuttle And DeHavilland Twin-Otters Every island in the Caribbean Is connected by air But who needs another pilot? I'll take any job, I swear! (final chorus) The hardest part about any job is getting it The hardest part of any dream is forgetting it And if my dream takes longer than expected And if it feels like I'm endlessly rejected I'm gonna do what I have to do Still I'm gonna do what I have to do
