Giddy anticipation
as the wheels are touchin, dowwwn
Can’t contain excitement
once my plane is on the grouuund

Grabbing my suitcase, a’rollin
heading through the gate
I’m prayin all’s okay
cuz the flight’s a little late

a little laaaa-ay-eh-ate

Been tryna hook up, darlin
ever since the light of day-ay.
But when I call ya, honey
well your phone just rings awaaay

Awayyy – ay – eh hay

Well I, been stuck in Medford
and I don’t know what to do – ooo.
I’ve done all that I could,
tryin to get ahold of you.

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do?

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do – ooo?

See the plan’s to be out
in celebration of Thanksgiving
Holy rollers giving chase:
“Repent, you do the Devil’s bidding”

Anxiety’s a’houndin me
inside this airline
No matter how I’m callin, you
just won’t pick up the line

It was kinda short notice
so things didn’t go as planned
Plus the phone went dead
meanwhile, traffic is at hand

aaa-aat haaaand

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do?

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do-ooo?

You approach, shaking your head
so, apologetically
You say: “Traffic outta nowhere
and a dead phone battery-eee”

Somehow forgot the charger
so I couldn’t let you know.
I’m so sorry, by the way
How did your flying gooo?”

“It’s alright my love, shit happens
The flights were, such a breeze
Now I’m ever-so elated
cuz I’m with the bee’s kneeees

The beeee’s knee-heee-eee-eees

Been tryna hook up, darlin
ever since the light of day-ay.
But when I call ya, honey
well your phone just rings away

I, been stuck in Medford
and I don’t know what to do – ooo.
I’ve done all that I could,
tryin to get ahold of you.

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do?

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do – ooo?
