I’druther Be an F-4 Jock Lyrics by Dick Jonas

2006

I'druther be an F-4 jock than the Governor of New York State
Now the Governor's got a pretty good job and I suppose he thinks it's great
But droppin' nape and strafin' trucks is two thing he don't know
And I couldn't fill the Governor's shoes
'Cause I couldn't spend all of that dough
I'druther be an F-4 jock than the owner of old Fort Knox
And I like the smell of JP-4 better than a rose wood box
Hydraulic fluid and after-burner fumes just some kinda turn me on
Feller, I'm happier flyin' F-4D's than a hound dog gnawin' a bone
I'druther be an F-4 jock than the Air Force Chief of Staff
One good reason, I ain't got the rank (Right here here you're supposed to laugh)
It's a lot more fun just droppin' bombs and hasslin' two-on-two
So I'll just stick to my gunnery range and flyin' the Phantom II
One of these days I'll light my fire and aim it straight at the sky
And you'll hear me shout as I disappear that the Phantom is the way to fly
I'll do a high speed pass by the Pearly Gates about 1.65 Mach
And just tell Saint Peter if he don't mind, just make me an F-4 jock
