Oh Amelia, fly your plane
Half across the country
Where I am
I wouldn’t keep you from the skies
I know you’d fly off by and by
All I ask is that you come back
Now and then

And if you fly to me
I will hold you tight
I will sing you every song I’ve ever know
You’re a sight to see
When you come to me in flight
Like the beautifulest bird that’s ever flown

Oh Anelia, come my angel
You’re in a drunken country ballroom dance
We’ll honkey tonk away our sorrows and our pain
We will drown ourselves in whiskey and romance

And if you fly to me
I will hold you tight
I will sing you every song I’ve ever known
You’re a sight to see
When you come to me in flight
Like the beautifulest bird that’s ever flown
Oh Amelia, fly your plane
Half across the country
Where I am
I wouldn’t keep you from the skies
I know you’d fly off by and by
All I ask is that you come back
Now and then
