Wingin' It Home To Texas

Hello momma I'm callin' you to tell you that I'm comin' home

What shape I'm in I wouldn't dare an try to tell you on the telephone

I been gone so long this song seems to be fallin' apart at the seams

I been makin' up heartbreak hotel so well that most of this is like a dream

Wingin' it home to Texas

Home on the mornin' plane

Wingin' it home to Texas

And they lost my bags again

That Dallas airport sucks

Last night this stringy cat came by and told me my astrology

Said I ought to move to Guam and open up this little health food store you see

So I just winged him the story bout a purple bear and when I left there

He was just bumpin' into walls and all I got to do now momma is just get back to there

Wingin' it home to Texas

Home on the mornin' plane

Wingin 'it home to Texas

And they lost my bags again

That Dallas airport sucks
