Lyrics:

Written by Merle Haggard

Silver wings shinning in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
Their taking you away, leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

Don't leave me I cry, don't take that airplane ride
But you locked me out of your mind
Left me standing here behind

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
Their taking you away, leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

Don't leave me I cry, don't take that airplane ride
But you locked me out of your mind
Left me standing here behind

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away

Leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight
