(How late was it?)

I'm on stand-by, Hope some are late
I'm on stand-by, I'm near the gate
I'm on stand-by, Hope I can go

I waited way too long
Now I might not get on
MUST get on

If anyone would let me on
cause hope ain't gone, it's colder
Anyone could sell one to me
I could go and see my lover

Right now I'll just sing this song-persuade you??
and how I'm so blue
I'm on stand-by

I'm on stand-by, chances getting low
'Cause on Stand-by
might not get to go
Still on stand by, Its a big disgrace

Please CANCEL ANYONE
Hey Buddy-sell me yours please son
Give me one!

they're on the plane, going insane
I'm getting the cold shoulder
See the wings, I just sit and sing
I'm not a ticket holder

I guess I'm gonna have to stay without you
Cause I am a stooge
I'm on stand by

stand by

The last call, it's the last call
Wait there is still one no show
Happening? Is this happening
Thank you Lord, Looks like I can go
'Bout got my trip, but that darn witch
Ran up to the door with pre-bought tix

Gonna cry, I lost my ride
I was too late on the stand by

On stand by
sta-sta-stand, sta-sta-stand by
On stand by
sta-sta-stand, sta-sta-stand by
I'm on stand by
sta-sta-stand, sta-sta-stand by
On stand by
