Alexander Bayly - Oregon State Lyrics

Sitting in an east coast airport
Waiting on a delayed flight
This one’s gonna take her back west tonight
To Oregon state
The Snake River, to delineate
The border with Idaho

Kelly’s dreams of acting
Were mopped up on the bathroom floor
After a double shift
At the five and dime
Downtown Manhattan
City of New York

She can’t wait to get back to Oregon
She can’t wait to get back to Oregon
She can’t wait to get back to Oregon

Cruising at 40,000
Her mind was a lonely island
Conversation mixed with the engine’s flow
With a window on Oregon state
Her body above does levitate
Coming back over Mount Jefferson

Kelly’s dream’s distracted
By a red light that’s illuminated
On West Coast Airlines Flight 956
10, 01, 1966

She can’t wait to get back to Oregon
She can’t wait to get back to Oregon
She can’t wait to get back to Oregon
