Graduated from Lincoln High, somehow I made my way through VMI Joined the Navy and I learned to fly, that's what I always dreamed of There's a hometown girl who wears my ring, her name is painted on my starboard wing Tonight I'm half a world from everything, and everyone that I love Chorus I wonder how the Yankees did tonight, I sure hope grand- -ma's doin' alright I wish I knew what momma's cookin?f for supper I pray Jane had got my letter and knows how much I love her Lord knows I got a job to do, I just can't wait un- -til it's through I keep dreamin' 'bout that homebound flight, lookin' for those runway lights Solo x 4 bars Grandpa did his part for Uncle Sam, daddy did his time in Vietnam Now I'm flyin' over sea and sand through unfriendly skies Man if it was up to me, I'd be touchin' down in Tennessee My baby standin' there waitin' on me, tears in her eyes Chorus I wonder how the Yankees did tonight, I sure hope grand- -ma's doin' alright I wish I knew what momma's cookin?f for supper I pray Jane had got my letter and knows how much I love her Lord knows I got a job to do, I can't wait un- til it's through I keep dreamin' 'bout that homebound flight, lookin' for those runway lights Tag Lookin' for those runway lights I can't wait to see those runway lights Lookin' for those runway lights Oh, I'm comin' home --- to fade
