graduated from lincoln high
somehow i made my way through vmi
joined the navy and i learned to fly
that's what i always dreamed of there's a hometown girl who wears my ring
her name is painted on my starboard wing
tonight i'm half a world from everything
and everyone that i love. i wonder how the angels did tonight
i sure hope grandma is doind alright
i wish i knew what moma is cooking for soupper
i pray jane has got my letter know how much i love her chorus
lord knows i got a job to do
i can't wait 'til it's through
i keep dreamin' bout that homebound flight
looking for those runway lights grandpa did his part ..
daddy did his time in vietnam
now i am flying over see and sand
.. sky.. feels up to me
i'll be touching down on tenesse
my baby is .. with tears in her eyes
i wonder how the .. did tonight
i sure hope grandma is doind alright
i wish i knew what moma is cooking for soupper
i pray jane has got my letter know how much i love her chorus
lord knows i got a job to do
i can't wait 'til it's through
i keep dreamin' bout that homebound flight
looking for those runway lights
looking for those runway lights
looking for those runway lights
