Your Good Airline's Gonna Go Bad

Tune - Your Good Girl's Gonna Go Bad
Tammy Wynette

(Sung by American Airlines Management)


(instrumental intro)

We haven't seen much profit for a long while
So, at D-F-Dubya we charge higher fares
Now Southwest Airlines wants to end the
Wright Amendment
So we're all riled up and goin' on a tear

So now your -- good airline's gonna go bad
We're gonna throw the biggest
Temper tantrum that
We've ever had
If ya like bein'
Price-gouged --
Jerked around --
Then you 'oughta be glad
'Cause your -- good airline's gonna go bad.

We're tellin' small towns they may lose their service
'Cause we're splittin' operations with Love Field
(Yeeeee-Haw!)
We must never get rid of the Wright Amendment
'Cause extortion fares are vital to our yields.

So now your -- good airline's gonna go bad
Gary Kelly ticked us off and
Now we're really mad!
If you like--
Lousy food --
Attitude --
Then you 'oughta be glad
'Cause your -- good airline's gonna go bad.

The Boys are talkin' to those politicians.
Yeah, they've got big muscles they just love to flex
The Boys will spread our message all across the nation
To keep higher fares throughout the Metroplex.

So now your -- good airline's gonna go bad
If American doesn't get its way
You'll wish we had
If you like --
Nasty threats --
Noisy jets --
Then you 'oughta be glad
'Cause your -- good airline's gonna go bad

If you want --
Fewer flights --
Ugly fights --
Then you 'oughta be glad
'Cause your -- good airline's gonna go bad.


Love Field Ain't Gonna Steal
Ft. Worth's mAAn

Tune - You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My Man
Loretta Lynn

(Sung by Ft. Worth to AA and Dallas)


(Instrumental intro)

(To AA)

You think you're gonna leave us
Well we don't think that's so
'Cause we've spent lots of cash on you
And we're not gonna let you go
You say you'll go to Love Field
Oh, but we don't think you can
'Cause there ain't no Love big enough
To take our mAAn

Airlines like you - they're a dime a dozen
But -- we can play hardball, too
You think you're gonna move
Half your fleet to Love Field??!!
Well baby, we've got news for you

It'll be over our dead bodies
Hire those lawyers while you can
There ain't no Love strong enough
To take our mAAn

(to Dallas now - with hands on hips)

Sometimes AA shoots off their mouth
They love to raise a fuss
But right now, since Love Field's too small
They're still in love with us

Well, we don't know where that leaves you
But we do know where we stand
Fort Worth won't allow your Love
To steal our mAAn

(Back to singin' to AA)

AA get your act together!
Stop spreadin' such doubt and fear
We're sick & tired of puttin' up
With all of this stuff
And let's make one thing perfectly clear.

You'll be leavin' over our dead bodies
So you'd best have another plan
We'll say it again -- (Love Field)
Can't handle our mAAn

No, Dallas Love Field won't steal
Fort Worth's - m-A-A-n


Set Love Free

Tune - You're Still The One
Orleans

(Sung by North Texas Flyers)


(Instrumental Intro)

Love's been in Dallas
Since way back when
Lots of folks - have flown there
Again and again
Now we want you to know
After all these years
Love's still restricted
And it fills our eyes with tears.

Love's still the one
Bringin' low fares to you
At Love Field --
That's what they do
They're still havin' fun,
And Love's still the one.

We stand -- at the dawn
Of a brand new day
It's high t-i-m-e --
The Wright Amendment went away.
We want lower fares,
We demand its repeal,
Help - bring North Texas
Com-pe-ti-tion that is real.

So, listen up
We'll raise our voices
The Metroplex
We deserve more choices
Let's work -- (you and me)
We can Set Love Free

We're passengers
And we are strong,
We now believe
That Wright is Wrong.
Let's work -- (you and me)
And we'll Set Love Free

(Ohhhh Baby)


(Lyrics for Instrumental Break)

Please - Congress won't you help us
Bring competition to North Texas - Now
(Pretty --- Please)
(We're on our knees)
(Don't make us gro-vel, Con-gress)

Listen to us,
Listen to us.
Won't you help us, Congress?
Dallas & Fort Worth want
Low fares now
It's - a-l-l - up to - y-o-u
Because - y-o-u-'r-e - the only ones - w-h-o
Can e-lim-i-nate it

You know what to - d-o-o-o --
So we can bring more low fares to you

(Oh Babe)

Con-gress help us,
Listen to us baby
Let's work together
Bringin' more competition


Free - us - down - in the Metroplex
Wright is just a hex
We don't - n-e-e-e-d

(Oooooh Ooooh!)

It's Competition
That makes us shout,
It's lower fares
That we dream about
Let's work, you and me
And we'll Set Love Free.

Now Wright should go
'Cause it's time has passed
Repeal it now
Free Love at last!
Congress, can't you see?
You should Set Love Free.

(Wake Up!)

D F W
Needs no crutch.
Abolish Wright
(Thank you very much)
Help North Texas fly
And tell Wright goodbye.

(Now are you listenin' Congress?)

Fuel is high
(And times are tough)
But Wright is Wrong
(We've had enough)
Congress - you're the key
Won't you Set Love - F-r-e-e-e?

The - Wright - A - Mend - Ment - is -
Just - Plane - Wrong


Petition Drive

Tune - Favorite Things


(Instrumental intro)

Hey listen up now
We need help from you,
Visit Set Love Free
And write letters, too
Tell Congress right now
That Wright needs to go
More competition is good
Don't you know?

We have fun flyin'
And pamperin' you, now
Hey, we're not lyin'
We love what we do, now
We'd fly more places
In Canyon Blue planes
If only Congress would
Just use their brains.

We'd fly to Hartford
And - Ft. Lauderdale
Vegas, Orlando
They'd all be on sale
LA, Chicago - we'd fly there with you
Manchester, Providence, Baltimore, too

When they price gouge,
Lose your luggage
Charge you extra fees
Remember the airport
Called Dallas Love Field
We'll make your next flight -- a breeze.

Small and convenient
Love suits Southwest fine
No big long taxi's
Planes get out on time
It's close to downtown
You're there in a flash
Dallas owns Love Field
(And they need more cash)

Fast, friendly service
A Southwest tradition
Please help us now
Won't you sign our petition?
We're the LUV airline
We'll all crazy hoots
Wearin' orange hot pants
And white go-go boots

Hey - did you hear,
Southwest Airlines got slammed?
In Ft. Worth's paper
The Star-Telegram
They said Southwest
Sold their message with sex
(Which usually works
In our great Metroplex!)

When they price gouge,
Lose your luggage
Charge an extra fee
Remember the airport
Called Dallas Love Field
Ask Congress to Set --- Love - Free!


Texas Has Spoken

Tune - Texas, Our Texas

(Sung by all pro-repeal Texans)


Texas has spoken
Two hundred thousand strong
We're telling Congress
That we think Wright is wrong

More competition
Helps our e-co-no-my
Why can't we stop this arguing
And simply Set Love Free?

(Now Congress)

Texas has spoken
And we need help from you
Please join our fight
Get rid of Wright
Now you know what to do

Oh now can't you hear us, Congress
We've spoken
You CAN change history
We hope you know
That Wright must go
It's time to Set Love Free


Congressional Hearing Song

Tune - The Trolley Song
Judy Garland

(Sung by Herb Kelleher)


Southwest stayed out at Love Field
D-F-W flipped
Thanks to the Wright Amendment
Low-fare wings at Love Field have been clipped.

Southwest fought hard to stay there.
And the courts, they agreed. (But)
Congress passed the Wright Amendment.
Now it's time for Love Field to be freed.

So many - p-l-a-c-e-s
Love can't go
Like Phoenix, Boise,
West Palm Beach and Buffalo
And Kansas - C-i-i-t-y, Tampa - B-a-a-y
And Philadelphia, Detroit and San Jose

HA! HA! went the other airlines.
Up, Up, Up, went their fares.
All North Texas flyers suffer
So we're asking Congress please
(We'll get down on hands and knees)
Just take a - s-t-a-a-n-d
Won't you give us a - h-a-a-n-d?
Com-pe-ti-tion is grand in this land
And we don't quite understand
How Wright - f-l-i-e-s
Congress - unlock our skies.
