You Flew The Coop by BR5-49 Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1996

[Verse 1]
Two little love birds sittin' in a tree
I loved you and you loved me
We sang so good together
And I jumped right through your hoop

But feathers flew, next thing I knew
I looked around and where were you

[Chorus]
You flew the coop
You flew the coop

[Verse 2]
Worked all year, scrimped and saved
First the nest and then the egg
We settled in for winter
We had our love to boot

But you bailed out, headed south
With the nest and an egg in your mouth
[Chorus]
You flew the coop
You flew the coop

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
See, love-birds will do funny things
If you do not clip their wings
They see an open window
And it's out into the blue

So birdie, if you hear the call
From your nest you're sure to fall

[Chorus]
You flew the coop
You flew the coop
You-ou-ou flew the coop
