Lyrics
When life down here's a thundercloud I take off for the air I soar above the madding crowd Without a single care I'm not one to stick around When problems start to brew So see you later, navigator I know just what to do

Chorus I'm gone (he's gonna fly) I'm gone (adios, bye, bye) Don't trouble me with troubles Man, I'm gone (oh, he's gone) I'm gone (wait a minute) I'm gone (the sky's the limit) I love to be above it all I'm gone

My baby duck, she brings me luck We dig each other's jive I dip down low, and up she'll go We never take a dive And when I hear the engines roar It thrills me to my soul So hold on tight, I'm out of sight Up here, I'm in control

Chorus (He's gone!) Oooh, yeah! (He's gone!) Lay it on me, Jack! (Don't trouble him with trouble, man, he's gone!) (He's gone!) Solid, Jackson! (He's gone!) You better believe it! (He loves to be above it all, he's gone!)

(He's gone!) It's my plane, Wayne (he's gone) Check the wing, Bing (he's gone) Pull the chock, Jock (he's gone) Clear the way, Ray (he's gone) Here I go, Flo (he's gone) Watch the flack, Jack (he's gone) Later, gator (he's gone)
