The Lyrics

The greatest moment in broadcasting history. (Internet Archive)
A show called “Red Eye”,
With no time to waste,
Produced a great line,
A cowboy school embrace,
Know that even heaven never could replace,
The “Red Eye” line that’s true...

It came from some lips,
With a cowboy fling,
“Yee-haw!” in a voice,
Was like a pogo spring,
Know that high school’s end gave him a way for him to bring,
The “Red Eye” line that’s true.

High school days were ending,
Friends were sad and feeling blue,
Still, he had found the time to say a line worth sending,
I’ll tell the world,
This line was true!

A sudden “Yee-haw!”
The chant so divine,
On this late-night show,
A high school last-day line,
I’d need a million phrases to properly define,
The moment of happiness,
The “Red Eye” line that’s true!
