[Verse 1]

Got my phone on airplane mode

You couldn't reach me if you wanted to

I'm here sittin' in between some beauty queen

On an iPhone trip in some boots and jeans

Old cowboy dude with a toothpick smile

He's Vegas bound, gonna let it ride

[Chorus]

Bought a ticket and missed my flight

But baby, I took off tonight

I left behind you and me

Right across from gate 23

And in my mind the wheels are up

I'm on my way to over us

Yeah, I'm gone as hell but I ain't gone too far

In this airport bar

[Verse 2]

I might not be on that plane

Now no one ever gave my money back

Oh, but I'm all kinds of flyin' high

It ain't no window seat but baby, I'm alright with that

'Cause I'm gettin' somewhere on two for one's in a high back chair

[Chorus]

Bought a ticket and missed my flight

But baby, I took off tonight

I left behind you and me

Right across from gate 23

And in my mind the wheels are up

I'm on my way to over us

Yeah, I'm gone as hell but I ain't gone too far

In this airport bar

[Bridge]

I thought I'd take a planes and trains and automobiles

Kinda getaway to make me feel better

[Outro]

But in my mind the wheels are up

I'm on my way to over us

Yeah, I'm gone as hell but I ain't gone too far

In this airport bar

This airport bar

This airport bar
