Eddie From Ohio - Fly South Lyrics
By the skeleton of nature we gauge its time to goThe last corps of my life we dodge the stormWe trace a path down 95 and merge with cousin flocksAll in hopes to keep our feathers warmFatigue has got the best of meMy wings have gotten soreIm not prepared for long-term aviationIm sleeping in tomorrow, so dont knock upon my doorI wont be falling in that flight formation.Tell ya what Im gonna doYou might think Im boldDont like to travelDont mind the coldDont misread my intentions, but Mama, if you dont mindYou can fly southIm staying behind.Now I can be sentimental, there are some things Ill missThe Carolina stops were good to meAnd when you cross that Georgia line, please give em all my loveAnd to my robin friend from Tennessee.But dont lead family to believe they wont see me no moreThey just must understand its a vacationIm sleeping in tomorrow, so dont knock upon my doorI wont be falling in that flight formationChorusWhen you get to Tallahassee, find that boy with the BB gunThat last year shot my brother from the skyTrack that yard rat downAnd you make sure that he aint armedAnd with all my best you can drop one in his eye.Chorus
