INTRO:         

                           
I was datin' some girl from Dayton
                                                
When I got a little noisy with someone else from Boise
                       
I did some yoga in Saratoga
                              
Wound up with lombago from San Diego


It got a little clamy one night in Miami
Made me wish again to be back in Michigan
I got too cute that time in Butte
Finally hit my quota in Sarasota


CHORUS:
                          
I wanna stop all this frequent flyin'
                           
Stay clear of those friendly skies
                    
Too tired of all this tryin'
                               
I need a map to keep track of my lies
                                                            
No more rental cars and mini bars, macadamaia jars, and five star motels


I had a folly one night in Raleigh
Man it was scenic on down in Phoenix
I went bonkers one night in Yonkers
But it was costin' too much in Boston


CHORUS:

I wanna shredder this rail pass
I gotta get back on the right side of the tracks
I wanna switch directions fast
It's just easier to stick to the facts
No more don't tells and won't tells, I'm done with these five star motels


CHORUS:

I'm gonna pull the wheels off this wheel estate
Park it on a pretty piece of land
Find a hometown girl that I can show the world
And tell the boys that I'm leavin' the band
I kept a stash of petty cash for a weddin' bash in the finest hotel


SOLO


We were playin' some bars one night on Mars
When a gal from Pluto lookin' for a little judo
I started to swoon, orbiting her moon
If I lived on Jupiter I couldn't have been stupider


CHORUS:
                          
I can't blame you for what you see
                           
You are light years ahead of me
                      
I messed around with re-entry
                             
We're just not from the same galaxy
                                                      
It's just the way I am, sorry ma'am, but I'll be damned to five star
                                                      
I won't tell if you don't tell it's just as well in these five star
                                                                    
There's no hope, it's the way I cope, I stole the soap from the five star motel
