Flip Flop and Fly
Now when I get the blues I get me a rockin' chair
When I get the blues I get me a rockin' chair
When the blues overtake me, gonna rock out away from here
And when I get lonesome, I jump on the telephone
When I get lonesome, I jump on the telephone
I call my baby, say I'm on my way back home
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
Give me one more kiss, hold it a long long time
Give me one more kiss, hold it a long long time
Love me baby 'til the feeling hits my head like wine
Here comes my baby, flashin' a new swimsuit
Here comes my baby, flashin' a new swimsuit
Well, he's so fine he can tell me only half the truth
And I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
You're like a Mississippi bullfrog, sittin' on a hollow stump
You're like a Mississippi bullfrog, sittin' on a hollow stump
You got so many women you don't know which way to jump
And you flip, flop and fly
I don't care if you die
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
When I get the blues I get me a rockin' chair
When the blues overtake me, gonna rock out away from here
And when I get lonesome, I jump on the telephone
When I get lonesome, I jump on the telephone
I call my baby, say I'm on my way back home
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
Give me one more kiss, hold it a long long time
Give me one more kiss, hold it a long long time
Love me baby 'til the feeling hits my head like wine
Here comes my baby, flashin' a new swimsuit
Here comes my baby, flashin' a new swimsuit
Well, he's so fine he can tell me only half the truth
And I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
You're like a Mississippi bullfrog, sittin' on a hollow stump
You're like a Mississippi bullfrog, sittin' on a hollow stump
You got so many women you don't know which way to jump
And you flip, flop and fly
I don't care if you die
I flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
