He starts drinking he starts punching
Holes in the walls
He threatened her with a back hander so she kicked him in the balls
His eyes made X’s and his mouth made O’s and he went down on the floor
His frightened wife and his crying kids
Ran out the kitchen door

Chorus
Cause some fly east and some fly west
And some fly over the coo coo’s nest
Some wind up in the lost and found and some just disappear
Some find god and some go fishing
Some folks spend their whole lives wishing
They win a million dollars so they can buy some happiness

Now Mary Flinn was a waitress in
A Chicago restaurant
Not much on the menu but she could get you what you want
One day her neighbor found her in her apartment all alone
With her eyes like flying saucers and her wrists cut to the bone

Now baby I love you and if you love me
Just think how happy we could be
Living in a cabin in the woods
We could scratch our selves like we got no shame
Run around naked in the pouring rain
And curl up by the campfire singing old campfire songs
