[Verse 1]
A stranger gives a homeless man a ticket to Hawaii
Giving him an option to sleep on the streets
Or sleep on the beach
So the bum accepts the ticket graciously
He said "My, my, my -
What an opportunity!"
He packed his bags
Got on the plane
Got nothing to lose
Everything to gain
Claimed his seat
Things are going well
Until "Sorry, sir, you'll have to leave
You're filthy, you smell"

[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere you go there's a dude on your ass, yo
Everywhere I go there's a dude on my ass, yo
Hopefully, things will change
Maybe soon, I don't know
I'll sit on the equator
Waiting for the snow

[Chorus]
If I had a clean shirt and a pair of shoes
Proper ID then I wouldn't lose
I'd walk the streets with my head held high
I've found my place
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
Stranger gives a poor man a million dollar check
He was old, he was wealthy
He figured "what the heck?"
Without a doubt, without a dime
Humbly he walks
All the way to the bank
To himself he talks
He said, "Ay, ay, ay
What am I gonna do with all these dollars?
Ay, ay, ay
What am I gonna do with all these dollars?
Ay, ay, ay
What am I gonna do with all these dollars?"
"Sorry, you can't cash a check without proper I.D."

[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere you go there's a dude on your ass, yo
Everywhere I go there's a dude on my ass, yo
Hopefully, things will change
Maybe soon, I don't know
I'll sit on the equator
Waiting for the snow

[Chorus]
If I had a clean shirt and a pair of shoes
Proper ID then I wouldn't lose
I'd walk the streets with my head held high
I've found my place
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
[Bridge]
The earth seems hushed
When the first snow falls
You watch the ground
Turns to a sea of white
Peace is this feeling
There's commotion up above
The ground is freezing
There's commotion up above

[Verse 3]
The flight was tough
Mad people getting dizzy
Everybody sick
Kept the flight attendants busy
?????
Tripped on ice
Bumped her head
Didn't know who she be

[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere you go there's a dude on your ass, yo
Everywhere I go there's a dude on my ass, yo
Hopefully, things will change
Maybe soon, I don't know
I'll sit on the equator
Waiting for the snow
[Chorus]
If I had a clean shirt and a pair of shoes
Proper ID then I wouldn't lose
I'd walk the streets with my head held high
I've found my place
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky

If I had a clean shirt and a pair of shoes
Proper ID then I wouldn't lose
I'd walk the streets with my head held high
I've found my place
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
It's in the sky
