Firebird Fly Lyrics - Little Big Town

1 She was counting out her tips and staring at the clock

2 When that jet black Pontiac slid into the parking lot

3 He walked in with a greasy grin

4 Said, "I'm needing something sweet"

5 She said, "Man, that Trans Am's the sweetest thing I've seen"

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

7 She said, "Only if you let me drive"

8 Firebird fly, burn up the sky

9 Wanna hear that engine crying

10 Stomp on the gas, gotta go fast

11 Screaming into the night and

12 Leaving it all behind

13 Firebird fly

14 Stopped outside Phoenix for smokes and gasoline

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

16 She turned her head, smiled and said

17 "I've been waiting all my life"

18 Then she popped the clutch and in a cloud of dust

19 She left him high and dry

20 For the first time she could finally spread her wings

21 Down the highway you could hear her sing

22 Firebird fly, burn up the sky

23 Wanna hear that engine crying

24 Stomp on the gas gotta go fast

25 Screaming into the night and

26 Leaving it all behind
