"Wings" - Toronto, Ontario - 11.19.2009 - http://cuebas.net/buffett/20091119_toro ... _wings.mp3


ive been up around the stratosphere
at thirty-one thousand feet
im gonna fly on out of here
on wings that you cant see
if youre gonna fly with me ( or ?way up?) up here
youre gonna have to learn to love the atmosphere
you gotta learn to use those wings you cant see

ive been shredding on the mountains of the moon
on a weekend wind
ive been looking for life on mars
ground control to major jim (tim?)
all these things could be yours too
if you just take another point of view
everybodys got a pair of wings they cant see


ive got wings you cant see
ive got wheels on my feet
way up high i feel free
on these wings you cant see


i dont need no runway
ive got fuel here in my ?bong?
i can buzz the treetop flyer
???? all day long
im looking down at tiny little cars
like the swimmers in the pools at tiny beach bars
all because of these wings that you cant see


ive got wings you cant see
ive got wheels on my feet
way up high i feel free
on these wings you cant see


maybe if you open up your mind
you might learn some things
God only knows what you will find
floating on those wings
you can fly high with all your problems
im here ??sitting??? with the way to solve them
i can only help you with the wings you cant see


we have wings you cant see
we've got wheels on my feet
way up high you feel free
on these wings you cant see

you have wings look and see
silver wings like ?newton and me?
come on up ??to cloud nine??????????
come on take a little taste of freedom
high up in cloudland kingdom
take a little trip on wings you cant see

From last night's setlist thread.

These are the lyrics I transcribed from Will's live performances of it I found online. I have not compared them to the version Jimmy sang, but I'll do that now.

I Got Wings

I've been up around the stratosphere
At 31,000 feet
I'm gonna fly on out of here
On wings that you can't see
If you're ever gonna fly without fear
You're gonna have to learn to love the atmosphere
And you've gotta learn to use those wings
That you can't see.


I've been skiing on the mountains of the moon
all weekend long
I've been lookin out for life on Mars
And singing my favorite songs.
All these things could be yours too
If you could just take another point of view
Everybody's gotta use wings
That they can't see.

I've got wings ... you can't see
I have wheels on my feet
Way up high
I feel free
On these wings you can't see.

Harmonica

No I don't need no plane ride
I don't need no airport life
I can hang around that treetop flying
Level all day long
Now I'm looking down on tiny cars
Tiny swimmers swimming around pools in yards
All on account of these wings
That you can't see

I've got wings ... you can't see
I have wheels on my feet
Way up high
I feel free
On these wings you can't see.

Harmonica

And maybe if you try to open up your mind
You might learn some things
God only knows what you might find
Floatin' on those wings
You can try to fly away from all your problems
Well I'm here to say that ain't the way to solve them
I can only help you with wings you can't see

I've got wings ... you can't see
I have wheels on my feet
Way up high
I feel free
On these wings you can't see.

You have wings
Look and see
Silver wings
Just like me
Way up high
We'll be free
Come on take a little taste of freedom
High up in a cloud lined kingdom
Take a little trip on wings
That you can't see

Harmonica music to end...

At The Stingaree Music Festival in 2008 Will says he's just gonna call it "WINGS"
