This song is very special to my heart....I was a confused six year old with a strange and dangerous obsession with the cocky fly-boys from the movie Top Gun. It's about finding a chick that's actually cooler than Iceman and Maverick put together!
lyrics
Verse 1:
My baby's flyin home red eye from Atlanta, GA, I can't reach her on the telephone
She's in the air on the wings of an aeroplane, I try so hard not to cry and moan
Chorus:
I'm in LOVE with that girl on the 747 (3x)
I look up to the sky, as she floats down from heaven
Verse 2:
Boeing jet, cargo plane, feels the wind in her hair, it's just too bad that we're apart.
She's got her pilot's wings, sittin in the captain's chair, now she's crop dustin my heart.
Chorus
Verse 3:
On time, perfect touchdown hit the runway, soon she'll be in my hands
She's the fairest chick waitin at the baggage claim, and I can't wait to crash land
Chorus
