Lyrics

[Intro]
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
So, I'm flying down to Houston
With forgetting him, the nature of my flight
[Verse 1]
As we taxi towards the runway
With the smog and haze reminding me of how I feel
Just a country girl who's learning
That the pitfalls of the city are extremely real
All the nightlife and parties
Temptation and deceit
The order of the day
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
'Cause I'm leaving, baby
Somewhere in L.A.
[Chorus]
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
So, I'm flying down to Houston
With forgetting him, the nature of my flight
[Verse 2]
Well, our golden jet is airborne
And flight 50 cuts across a path of morning sky
And a voice comes through the speaker
Reassuring us flight 50 is the way to fly
And a hostess takes our order
Coffee, tea, or something stronger
To start off the day
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
'Cause I'm leaving, baby
Somewhere in L.A.
[Chorus]
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
So, I'm flying down to Houston
With forgetting him, the nature of my flight
[Outro]
I'm flying down to Houston
With forgetting him, the nature of my flight
