Ready to Fly
Mamma called this morning
Said, "Son won't you come back home?"
I ain't been feelin' good and I know it won't be long
Don't keep me waiting
I wanna touch your face again
Ohh, what a good life it's been...
Now I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly
All my family and friends.
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky
I'm ready to fly
Yeah, I'm ready to fly
Hard times in '69
The war was raging on
That's the reason my daddy left
And never made it back home
It was tough for all of us
But mama smiled everyday
Ohh, it's so hard to hear her say
Now I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly
All my family and friends
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky
So I'm ready to fly
She made sure she never let us see her cry
But those tears on the pillow, she couldn't hide
I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly
All my family and friends
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky...
Soooo
Yeah, I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly, fly, fly
All my family and friends
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky
I'm ready to fly
Yeah, I'm ready to fly
I'm ready to fly
I'm ready to fly
Fly, fly, fly
Said, "Son won't you come back home?"
I ain't been feelin' good and I know it won't be long
Don't keep me waiting
I wanna touch your face again
Ohh, what a good life it's been...
Now I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly
All my family and friends.
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky
I'm ready to fly
Yeah, I'm ready to fly
Hard times in '69
The war was raging on
That's the reason my daddy left
And never made it back home
It was tough for all of us
But mama smiled everyday
Ohh, it's so hard to hear her say
Now I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly
All my family and friends
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky
So I'm ready to fly
She made sure she never let us see her cry
But those tears on the pillow, she couldn't hide
I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly
All my family and friends
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky...
Soooo
Yeah, I'm ready to fly
I wanna see your daddy again
I'm ready to fly, fly, fly
All my family and friends
I know they're out there waiting
In a place beyond the sky
I'm ready to fly
Yeah, I'm ready to fly
I'm ready to fly
I'm ready to fly
Fly, fly, fly
