Mama told me not to go for the ride
Now it's burning me up inside
Knowing someone's got a hold over you
Some say this is only one thing to do
You've got to get out on your solo flight
You've got to get out on your solo flight.

You're nothing better, check out your feet
You may find you're tracked a long winding street
There are a lot of very strange things said now
They will try to tell you why, where and how
You've got to get out on your solo flight
You've got to get out on your solo flight.

Standing there I knew we'd have us the same
Substituting different numbers for names
Finding this is what is meant by the light
Said I'm losing touch and losing my sight
You've got to get out on your solo flight
You've got to get out on your solo flight.
