0:15May the wind be at your back
0:18And the world sit at your feet
0:21May you waltz across wyoming
0:24With a rose clutched in your teeth
0:26May the answers to your questions
0:29Fall like raindrops right on queue
0:32May you set up shop in heaven
0:35Fore the devil knows you're due
0:40Ooh here's to love
0:44Here's to life
0:45All the fair and tender ladies
0:48And the plain dirt farmer's wife
0:51Yeah here's to you
0:55Here's to me
0:56Some ol mad dog mountain flyboy
0:59And the kid from tennessee
1:18May your nights be filled with laughter
1:21And your days with honest work
1:24May you wake up smelling roses
1:27When you're facedown in the dirt
1:29If you had the sense to come in
1:32When the storm clouds start to grow
1:35You wouldn't be my right hand
1:38And the best friend that i know
1:43Ooh here's to life
1:47Here's to love
1:48When your heart beats like a lion
1:50And your shoes fit like a glove
1:54Yeah here's to you
1:58Here's to me
1:59Some ol mad dog mountain flyboy
2:02And the kid from tennessee
2:32May you always stay in touch with the things
2:36That keep you young
2:38When you're staring at injustice
2:41May you never bite your tongue
2:44May the bear tracks in your future
2:46Find you downwind in a glade
2:49Where the grass as green as absinthe
2:52Comes in forty different shades
2:57Ooh here's to love
3:01Here's to life
3:02All the fair and tender ladies
3:05And the old fishmonger's wife
3:09Yeah here's to you
3:12Here's to me
3:14Some ol mad dog mountain flyboy
3:16And the kid from tennessee
3:21Yeah set em up drinks for free
3:27It's the mad dog mountain flyboy
3:29And the kid from tennessee
May the wind be at your back And the world sit at your feet May you waltz across wyoming With a rose clutched in your teeth May the answers to your questions Fall like raindrops right on queue May you set up shop in heaven Fore the devil knows you're due Ooh here's to love Here's to life All the fair and tender ladies And the plain dirt farmer's wife Yeah here's to you Here's to me Some ol mad dog mountain flyboy And the kid from tennessee May your nights be filled with laughter And your days with honest work May you wake up smelling roses When you're facedown in the dirt If you had the sense to come in When the storm clouds start to grow You wouldn't be my right hand And the best friend that i know Ooh here's to life Here's to love When your heart beats like a lion And your shoes fit like a glove Yeah here's to you Here's to me Some ol mad dog mountain flyboy And the kid from tennessee May you always stay in touch with the things That keep you young When you're staring at injustice May you never bite your tongue May the bear tracks in your future Find you downwind in a glade Where the grass as green as absinthe Comes in forty different shades Ooh here's to love Here's to life All the fair and tender ladies And the old fishmonger's wife Yeah here's to you Here's to me Some ol mad dog mountain flyboy And the kid from tennessee Yeah set em up drinks for free It's the mad dog mountain flyboy And the kid from tennessee
