But I wasn't gonna leave without saying goodbye

But if I reversed on a hard cross I could immediately go to guns on them

But if the government trusts me maybe you could

But it's like every time we go up there it's like you're flying against a ghost

But not her she just sit up there alone just listening hours just listening

But please understand I still have a job to do

But she's lost that loving feeling she's lost

But there will be others you can count on it

But who the hell knows it's all classified

But you better listen to her because the pentagon listens to her about your proficiency

But you can be my wingman anytime.

But you remember one thing you screw up just this much you'll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of hong kong
