Lyrics
I came to work this morning just like yesterday Looked out of my window glad to see Old Glory wave I never could have imagined in my wildest dream Standing on this ledge and begging God for wings Superman, where are you tonight Are you really retired? Metropolis came down today and Capitol City's on fire The Devil's laughing in the pit of Hell He never gets his fill The flag of freedom might be flying low But you can bet it's flying still I boarded this big airplane headed for L.A. A million dreams in my head, I'm gonna be somebody someday I never could have imagined in my worst nightmare Making my peace with Jesus 1200 feet in the air Chorus One of this city's finest, well, I don't know what that means I'm just doing my job, trying to make ends meet I've never seen anything like this and I've been here since '73 I look up in disbelief as the sky falls down on me Chorus
