Happy Blues For John Glenn Lyrics

Happy Blues For John Glenn by Lightning Hopkins


People I was sittin' this mornin' with this on my mind
Said there ain't no livin' man who gone around the
World three time
But John Glenn did
Yes he did
He did it, I'm talkin' about him
Only did it for fun

Half a million dollars made him feel so well
He got to eatin' his lunch and couldn't hardly tell
He said I feel all right
John Glenn said it
Everybody was laughin',
And dipped in the gritty

It was a million prayer went up,
Prayin' that he would land
I looked at a schoolhouse full of men and they didn't
Know what to say
But they said "Let him come back, God
Please let him land
You know that's the onliest man ever did it
And you're the helpin' hand"

I see'd him when he left but I didn't see him when he
Land
But I knowed he was doin' all right when they said it
Is OK to give him a great big hand
He'll be in on the ship
They say he's on deck
His mother say I know my son gonna make it, it ain't

Never been no mistake

You know I wanna tell you somethin', this ain't lyin'
You know that man must had on his mind flyin'
It ain't nobody will take that for his tryin',
Unless they gonna build him his own self airplane and
They gonna go flyin'
They told him "Don't worry, this is true
You may miss me for a few minutes but I'll be back to
See about you", he did!
Yes he did
Yes when he done it, didn't know what had happened the
Helicopter say

You know they tested that boy's body, even test his
Heart
They knowed he was all right when he was gettin' to
Start
I mean he's made it!
He went around the world three times
You know he went and got him an airplane,
And he made up and had it on his mind

That's what he had on his mind
He didn't have no kid and he didn't have no digs
He just had it in his mind flyin'
