First Flight to Phoenix - Chris Rupp

that first flight to Phoenix, where the land is scenic

just warm sand far as the eye can see

look at these yankees suffering, shiverin' like it ain’t nothing

no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

well i’m stuck in Minneapolis with the snow fallin' all around us

thinkin' i overstayed past my time

now i’m freezin' and believin'

folks up here are most confusin'

that first flight to Phoenix on my mind

that first flight to Phoenix, where the land is scenic

just warm sand far as the eye can see

look at these yankees suffering, shiverin' like it ain’t nothing

no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

you can keep your snow skiing, and temps below freezing

and ice fishin', no that aint my bag

i’d rather drive with the top down

ice from the freezer, not the ground

and nothing like that january tan

that first flight to Phoenix, where the land is scenic

just warm sand far as the eye can see

look at these yankees suffering, shiverin' like it ain’t nothing

no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

not a fan of them long johns, rather wear a bright thong

i know the ladies will admire

a man who can pour champagne

while on a boat that bears their name

not on my knees putting on snow tires

that first flight to Phoenix, where the land is scenic

just warm sand far as the eye can see

look at these yankees suffering, shiverin' like it ain’t nothing

no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

that first flight to Phoenix, this plan is genius

just warm sand far as the eye can see

look at these yankees suffering, shiverin' like it ain’t nothing

no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

that first flight to Phoenix, where the land is scenic

just warm sand far as the eye can see

look at these yankees suffering, shiverin' like it ain’t nothing

no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

I said no sir, a snowbird’s life for me

Get me out of here

See you back in June

Yeah, that’s it
