From the recording Leaves on the Wind Vol. 1: Still Flying
Lyrics
Inspired by Firefly episode 1: Serenity, wherein we meet the captain and crew of the best gorram ship in the 'verse. Written by The Fallen Stars.
STILL FLYING
It started with the war you see
The battle of Serenity
We were mighty but we lost anyway
Now we travel on the rim
The core just ain't worth living in
Salvaging a life day by day
The crew of this here Firefly
Are under Captain's watchful eye
First mate Zoë keeps Wash flying true
Jayne's just in it for the cash
Inara brings a bit of class
Kaylee's working in the engine room
Still flying, still flying
It ain't much but it's enough
Still flying, still flying
It ain't much, but it's enough
We'll take whatever work we can
A shepherd, doctor and lawman
And a crazy girl with brains bout near to burst
That's most our cargo, not quite all
Got one quick drop off in Whitefall
If Patience doesn't kill us first
Criminals and savages
Bullet holes and fugitives
It was a good day
Still flying, still flying
It ain't much but it's enough
Still flying, still flying
It ain't much, but it's enough
