Steal You Away (Flight of the Spruce Goose) Songtext
von John Parr

He was a coalminer, working down in Pittsburg P.A.
She was his bride, but he held her in his arms for just a day

Everybody told him he was crazy, but he knew better
Couldnt get that girl out of his head, he was gonna get her
Loaded up the truck, and stole her away

Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away
Im gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A.

A thousand miles to go, and a thousand more behind, they were on the run
Love can make you blind, so you never realize just what youre running from

Everybody told em they were crazy, but they knew better
Sure as theres a sun up in the sky, they were gonna get there
Put their trust in luck to show them the way, yeah yeah

Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
Im gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A.

(Solo)


Just like that silver bird, we were never meant to fly
Forget about them, put your trust in me
Youre gonna see your name up in lights

Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
Im gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A., hey yeah
Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, steal you away
Im gonna steal ya, gonna steal you away, yeah
Steal ya, Im gonna steal you away

Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away
Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away
Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, yeah
Im gonna, Im gonna, Im gonna

Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, gonna get you today
Im gonna steal ya, gonna cut a road to L.A., yeah yeah
Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away, yeah yeah
Im gonna steal ya, Im gonna steal you away... (to fade)
