Bloody Mary Morning

(album: Phases And Stages - 1974)

Well it's a bloody mary morning
Baby left me without warning sometime in the night
And I'm flying down to Houston with forgetting her the nature of my flight

As we taxi toward the runway the smog and haze reminding me of how I feel
Just a country boy who's learning that the pitfalls of the city are extremely real
All the night life and the parties temptation and deceit the order of the day
Well it's a bloody mary morning cause I'm leaving baby somewhere in LA
Well it's a bloody mary morning...
[guitar steel piano]
Well our golden jet is airborn flight fifty cuts a path across the morning sky
And a voice comes on the speaker reassuring us flight fifty is the way to fly
Now a hostess takes our order coffee tea or something stronger to start off the day
And it's a bloody mary morning cause I'm leaving baby somewhere in LA
Well it's a bloody mary morning...
Well I'm flying down to Houston with forgetting her the nature of my flight
