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 Yankees did tonight I sure hope grandma's doin' alright I wish I knew what momma's cooking for supper I pray Jane had got my letter and knows how much I love her Lord knows I got a job to do I just can't wait until it's through I keep dreamin' bout that homebound flight Looking for those runway lights. Grandpa did his part for Uncle Sam Daddy did his time in Vietnam Now I'm flying over sea and sand Through unfriendly skies Man if it was up to me I'd be touchin' down in Tennessee My baby standing there waiting on me SongtexteTears in her eyes I wonder how the Yankees did tonight I sure hope grandma's doin' alright I wish I knew what momma's cooking for supper I pray Jane had got my letter and knows how much I love her Lord knows I got a job to do I can't wait until 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. Aus Songtexte Mania
