Goin' Places Lyrics

I like the feelin' I get
When I'm ridin' in a jet
Say I'm goin' places
I like the feelin' I get
When I'm ridin' in a jet
Say I'm goin' places

I want to go
To a different land
Try my best
To understand
The different traditions
And customs
That people have

The world is bigger
Than this ole town
I wanna get my feet up
Off the ground
I've saved up my money
And I'm leavin' here today
'Cause....

Chorus:
I like the feelin' I get
When I'm ridin' in a jet
Say I'm goin' places

I want to get
A first class seat
Climbing to a high of forty feet
It don't take long
To get where you wanna go

I'm gonna have myself a ball
This ole world I wanna see it all
I got my clothes packed
And I'm leaving right away

[Chorus]

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm pretty sure it's "Climbing so high up to forty thousand feet."
