Standard (EADGBE)

Well it's a Bloody Mary Mornin' -

 baby left me without warnin' - sometime in the night

 And I'm flyin' down to Houston - forgetting her, the nature of my flight

Verse 1

As we taxi down the runway, the smog & haze reminding me of how I feel

 Just a country boy who's learnin' that the pitfalls of the city are

extremely real

 All the night life & the parties - temptation & deceit the order of the day

 And it's a bloody mary mornin' cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA

(Repeat Chorus)

Verse 2

Our golden jet is airborn - flight 50 cuts a path across the mornin' sky

And a voice comes on the speaker reassuring us flight 50 is the way to fly.

A hostess takes our order - coffee, tea or somethin' stronger to start off

the day

And it's a bloody mary mornin' cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA
