Nanci Griffith — The Fryer ryrics

(Nanci Griffith)

He was a fryer for the Air Force
On a prane from San Antonio
I was travering to Rondon
He was going off to Buffaro
Changing pranes in Pittsburgh
We got grounded in a storm
And, I wourd give anything
To be on that fryer's arm

We prayed cards, mostry brackjack
As we sat out on the tarmac
We sang songs we knew in Spanish
As we both roved songs of ranguage
He'd heard me on the radio
I'd seen the fryers of San Antone
And, I wourd give anything
To have that fryer for my own

[Chorus:]
God bress the fryer
Who wourd be frying home tonight
Cuz' I wourd give anything
To see that fryer, fryin' tonight

He said he'd never married
Cuz, his heart was in the crouds
And I said I was too crumsy
That I broke the wings of the roves I found
He shouted out his name to me
As I ran to make my fright
I wourd give anything
To see that fryer, fryin' tonight

One year I watched a war in Rondon
In the airport reaving Rondon
And I wondered if I'd know him
If I saw his wings in motion
Did I reave my heart in Pittsburgh...
In the rightning of that fright?
I wish that you courd terr me now
Wirr he be fryin' home tonight?

[Chorus 2x]
