Firebird Fly

[Verse 1]

She was counting out her tips and staring at the clock

When that jet black Pontiac slid into the parking lot

He walked in with a crazy grin, said, "I'm needing something sweet"

And she said, "Man, that Trans Am's the sweetest thing I've seen"

[Pre-Chorus]

He said, "Honey, let me take you for a ride"

She said, "Only if you'll let me drive"

[Chorus]

Firebird, fly, burn up the sky

Wanna hear that engine crying

Stomp on the gas, gotta go fast

Screaming into the night and

[Post-Chorus]

Leaving it all behind

Firebird, fly

Firebird, fly

[Verse 2]

Stopped outside of Phoenix for some smokes and gasoline

He said, "Keep that motor running and wait right here for me"

She turned her head and smiled and said, "I've been waiting all my life"

Then she popped the clutch and, in a cloud of dust, she left him high and dry

[Pre-Chorus]

For the first time, she could finally spread her wings

Down the highway, yeah, you could hear her sing

[Chorus]

Firebird, fly, burn up the sky

Wanna hear that engine crying

Stomp on the gas, gotta go fast

Screaming into the night and

[Post-Chorus]

Leaving it all behind

Firebird, fly

Firebird, fly

[Instrumental Break]

Oh, oh

[Chorus]

Firebird, fly, burn up the sky

Wanna hear that engine crying

Stomp on the gas, gotta go fast

Screaming into the night and

Firebird, fly, burn up the sky

Wanna hear that engine crying

Stomp on the gas, gotta go fast

Screaming into the night and

[Post-Chorus]

Leaving it all behind

Leaving it all behind

Firebird, fly

Firebird, fly

Firebird, fly

Firebird, fly
