Skip Shooter 73's

كلمات الأغنية

[Verse 1] It's 9 a.m. and the static's thick I've got a coffee cup and a pencil stick Been callin' CQ for an hour or more Just a voice in the dark on channel four The meter's jumpin' but the signal's weak I'm talkin' to a trucker down in Baton Rouge He says the band's wide open, better take my shot There's a skip comin' in from a somewhere hot [Chorus] I'm shootin' skip across the ocean Through the noise and the cool air I'm shootin' skip, a single notion Someone somewhere's gotta hear me, Im 3 5 2 From a little town in central valley California, To a rooftop in Bombay I'm shootin' skip and I won't quit Till the sunsets in the USA [Verse 2] I got a homemade beam and a hundred watts A coffee can ground plane in the parking lot My neighbor thinks I'm crazy, talks to the wall But he don't know the distance in a single call Last night I hit a guy in the UK He said my signal sounded thin but it made his day I wrote his handle down in a spiral pad The best conversation that I never had [Chorus] I'm shootin' skip across the ocean Through the noise and the cool air I'm shootin' skip, a single notion Someone somewhere's gotta hear me, I’m 3 5 2 From a little town in central valley California, To a rooftop in Bombay I'm shootin' skip and I won't quit Till the sun comes up in the USA [Bridge] Some folks chase a payday, some folks chase a name I chase a crackle comin' through the rain A voice from a country that I'll never see Sayin' "good buddy, you're comin' in clean" That's enough for me [Chorus] I'm shootin' skip across the ocean Through the noise and the cool air I'm shootin' skip, a single notion Someone somewhere's gotta hear me, I'm 3 5 2 From a little town in central valley California, To a rooftop in Bombay I'm shootin' skip and I won't quit Till the sun comes up in the USA [Outro] Ten-four, Ten-four, 73's Ten-four, good buddy, I'm clear I'm clear
