Well there I was on some fine sunday afternoon
Just me and my airplane
On a little airpot we've never been to before
We're on short final and nothing was looking right
I was seeing red over red, white over white
And I couldn't seem to remember how that saying went anyway but
I was staring straight down at the runway
And all I could think of was about setting myself up
To ungraciously dismantle this perfectly good little airplane
And, and then off in the distance I heard a voice
And I think it was that of my flight instructor saying
"You can always go around"
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding on the ground
You can always go around
I know back when, when I learned to fly
My instructor was yelling in my ear
How we're in carb' heat cold, climb out, pitch, flaps to go
Take it 'round the patch, one more time again
But I know now, he was showing me
That's just because the nose is pointing down
If it doesn't look right
Give it one more try
You can always go around
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding upside down
You can always go around
You're coming in
You see you're high and fast
But your mind is set on somehow getting down
The runway leads to grass that leads into trees
It will leave your sweater dripping from your brow
You still got time
Simply change your mind
It would sure be nice to fly this plane again
With the wings still straight
See no place to hesitate
Pitch and power, gear and flaps
Hey, "Go around"!
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding on the ground
You can always go around
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding on the ground
You can always go around
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding on the ground
You can always go around
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding on the ground
You can always
You can always go around
If it don't look right coming down
Don't wait until your socks keep sliding on the ground
You can always go around
