lirik lagu the day i jumped from uncle harveyã¢??s plane – roger miller
me ‘n’ oliver ‘n’ virgil was in the drugstore killing time
when my eyes fell upon this magazine
and i got to reading this article on sky-diving and parachuting
and it said jumping out of air-planes was the thing
now being raised down on a farm and always ready for adventure
i knew that i could figure out a way
i said “well delmer gill’s got a parachute and uncle harvey’s got an air-planeâ€
so i said “call the boys together, today’s the dayâ€
well i found out too late what uncle harvey called an air-plane
was nothing but an engine and a wing
and i could feel my fear a-rising as delmer packed the parachute
‘cos he kept telling me i was doing the right thing
ron mcloughlin shook my hand as jd strapped me in the harness
and tildon brought a jug and p-ssed it around
i took one look at that parachute and that whisky and that air-plane
and i turned that bottle up and drank it down
well i was drunker’n cooter jones when they poured me in the plane
the engine coughed and headed for the clouds
but i was sober as a judge by the time they opened up the door
and i’ve never known my heart to beat so loud
i said, “harvey, i can’t do it†as he kicked me out the door
and i wrapped my hands around the landing gear
and i was holding on real good ‘til harvey stepped down on my fingers
and virgil said he heard me scream from way down there
well i thanked god and delmer gill when my parachute finally opened
i said “well, h-ll there ain’t no use in being afraidâ€
and i went crashing through the hen house, scattering chickens and breaking eggs
and i kissed the ground and fainted dead away
now friends i’ve done some fighting, and i’ve been shot at once or twice
and i’ve durn near been run over by a train
but i don’t think i remember being any more afraid
than the day i jumped from uncle harvey’s plane
