I was sittin' on a plane, I was lookin' at the dreary day
I saw somebody, she was sittin' just an aisle away
She was a first class lady, and I knew that she looked refined
My heart started thumpin' louder than the engine whine

I got the sky blues-- I'm up in the air
Runnin' from a lady who just don't care
And all I wanna do is get down to earth with you
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, I got the sky blues
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, I got the sky blues

Well, I sat down beside her and I told her I was feeling blue
I said, "My girl don't want me and it's breaking my heart in two"
Well I felt so bad that I didn't even stick around. I said,
"We may be flying but heart's draggin' on the ground."
