The Dragon Driver Ditty
Sing to tune of "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands"
Oh, there are no orange barrels in the sky, You can leave them all below you when you fly,
There may be thunderstorms and ice, Otherwise, it's pretty nice,
for there are no orange barrels in the sky.
There are no impaired drivers in the sky,
You can leave them all below you when you fly,
Landing winds too strong and cross? Don't go there, avoid the loss,
But there are no impaired drivers in the sky,
There's no potholes nor debris up in the
sky, You can leave them all below you when you fly,
There are flocks of ducks and geese, that can interrupt your peace,
But there's no potholes and debris up in the sky.
There are no congested highways in the sky, You can leave them all below you when you fly,
Sometimes congestion with ATC, Makes conversation too busy,
But there are no congested highways in the sky.
There are no slow-moving trucks up in the
sky, You can leave them all below you when you fly,
There may be thunderheads with hail That can make your face turn pale,
But no slow-moving trucks up in the sky.
There are no lakes or rivers in the sky, You can leave the bridge below you when you fly,
There may be ceilings that are low, That make flying a real "No-Go",
But, there are no lakes or rivers in the sky.
There are no speed limit signs up in the
sky, You can leave them all below you when you fly,
You can travel twice as fast, and burn up twice the gas,
But, there are no speed limit signs up in the sky,
There
are no refueling stations in the sky, You will leave
them all below you when you fly,
So be
sure supplies will last, When the headwinds burn your
gas,
‘Cause
there are no refueling stations in the sky.
