Somewhere Over China
By: Jimmy Buffett
1981
For the Crazy Flying Tigers
Just a semi-normal person
Thought he had the future planned
Then he won some silly sweepstakes
Now he had a hundred grand
Never stopped to think of taxes
He was gone before they knew
With a flair for ol` romantics
To the Orient he flew

When they fueled in Papeete
Placed a call to Big Mamou
With an honest explanation
Just to tell the whole damn truth
It`s his one chance in a million
Who`d deny the simple fact
`Twas no use to talk it over
He`d be home when he got back

Chorus:
Now he`s somewhere over China
Lookin` down on all the trails
On the mountains lookin` back at him
It`s a real live fairy tale
Put a little distance
Between causes and effects
Like a day old fortune cookie
Askin` who or what comes next

What the hell did Marco Polo think
When he ran into the wall
Or the crazy Flying Tigers
Doin` spins and loops and stalls
Just a taste for somethin` different
Perking up a borin` day
Now our man from Louisiana
Feels exactly the same way

Chorus:
They`re all somewhere over China
Shanghai or old Peking
On a plane or a boat in an envelope
Real adventure has its ring
Just to put a little distance
Between fact and fantasy
Still six thousand miles away from
Where I`d really rather be

How I would love to drive the shuttle
Just to feel the engines roar
And to operate the levers
That control the payload doors
I could buzz the Himalayas
Barrel roll above Hong Kong
Set her down in San Francisco
To the clangin` of a gong

Chorus:
We`re all somewhere over China
Headin` east or headin` west
Takin` time to live a little
Flyin` so far from the nest
Just to put a little distance
Between causes and effects
Like an ancient fortune teller
Knowin` who and what comes next
