Surprise, AZ Lyrics

Richard Buckner Surprise, Az written by Richard Buckner
Mother do you see what's about to happen
I'm gonna turn us around and we'll be gone
Put your arms up dear and we'll keep the casket open
When they take us back to Oklahoma where we belong
Surprise Arizona
Put us out of our sweet misery
In 34 you were 21
He told me once that he knew when he first saw you
But were you happy then
I'd like to know
I think about him still when I see you alone
Surprise Arizona
Put us out of our sweet misery
And you know about me at only 23
you saw her come and go as I went through everything I had
But mother did you see what was gonna happen
She let me down so far I never quite made it back
Surprise Arizona
Put us out of our sweet misery
Surprise Arizona
Put us out of our sweet misery
