Flagstaff by morning,

she don't know I'm coming.

Maybe I'll wake her softly from a dream she's dreamin' sweet.

Flagstaff by morning,

she don't know I'm coming.

Maybe I'll just gently slip between the sheets.

I promised her one day

my songs would make the big time

and I'd buy her a big house where the hills meet the sky.

Well, I'm still playin' jukejoints

and very roadside attraction.

My dreams may be grounded but my pick-up can fly to

Flagstaff by morning,

she don't know I'm coming.

Maybe I'll wake her softly from a dream she's dreamin' sweet.

Flagstaff by morning,

she don't know I'm coming.

Maybe I'll just gently slip between the sheets.
