Darlin' Dan (The Rocket Man) |
My daddy lost his life flying jets in World War III |
He logged over five million miles for the NATO Air Marines |
Myself I spent the last two years makin' interplanetary runs |
But no one in my family flies a rocket like my mom |
Chorus: |
Darlin' Dan the rocket man |
Not just one of the guys |
Darlin' Dan the rocket man |
Slicing up the skies |
Darlin' Dan the rocket man |
Makes the big rigs fly |
Darlin' Dan the rocket man |
She’s a lady in disguise |
My little baby sister won’t ever be a fashion queen |
She never showed interest in clothes or fancy things |
Golden curls fallin' down upon some dirty coveralls |
Wants to follow in her mother’s footsteps, fly a rocket just like her mom |
Chorus |
Spoken: |
There finally came the day when mama made her last run |
Malfunction of the instruments and she crashed into the |
sun |
Now my baby sister won’t came out into the day |
She spends all her time in darkness since mama passed away |
Chorus |
