Lyrics

FLYGIRL

She shimmied out of her flight suit
Hung it up beside her helmet and boots
Left her jet on the flight deck
And headed out for R&R

I dusted off my gloves and hat
Slid the saddle off that bronco's back
Hung my spurs on a rusty nail
Then took off for Sammy's bar

She was a flygirl
I's just a cowboy
Drivin' bulls half stir-crazy
While she flew Tomcats for the Navy

I lassoed her heart, she couldn't get away
She locked on target, no escape
Lighting hit when the
Flygirl kissed the cowboy

I never knew I could love so much
Until that night when our lips touched
Like a creek that floods each Spring
We had a love that overflowed

Then Al Qaeda played its hand
Her ship set sail for a foreign land
She held me tight her last night at home
I thought she'd never let go

But she was a flygirl
And I's just a cowboy...

Five miles high, her jet exploded in a starry sky
I thought I felt her kiss, I knew somethin' wasn't right

Oh she loves her cowboy
And I love my girl
Even though she drove me crazy
Flyin' those war birds for the Navy
I lassoed her heart, she couldn't get away
She locked on target, no escape
Lightning hit and the flygirl kissed the cowboy
The flygirl kissed the cowboy

Flygirl (kissed the cowboy)
Flygirl (kissed the cowboy)
