Firebird Fly lyrics

[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"
He said "Honey, let me take you for a ride"
She said "Only if you 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 yeah
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
For the first time, she could finally spread her wings
Down the highway, yeah, you could hear her sing
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Firebird fly, burn up the sky
Wanna hear that engine crying
Stomp on the gas
Gotta go fast
Screaming into the night yeah [repeat]
Leaving it all behind [repeat]
Firebird fly, Firebird fly [repeat]
