Flip Flop and Fly - Johnnie Ray

When I get the blues I get me a rockin' chair

When I get the blues I get me a rockin' chair

If the blues ever take me gonna rock right away from here

Now when I get lonesome I get on the telephone

Now when I get lonesome I get on the telephone

I call my baby and tell him I’m on my way back home

Now flip, flop and fly

I don’t care if I die

Flip, flop and fly

I don’t care if I die

Don’t ever leave me don’t ever say good-bye

Here comes my baby flashing a new gold tooth

Here comes my baby flashing a new gold tooth

He’s so skinny he can mambo in a payphone booth

Give me on last kiss and hold it a long, long time

Give me on last kiss and hold it a long, long time

'Til the feeling over comes me with a feelin' in my head like wine

Now flip, flop and fly

I don’t care if I die

Flip, flop and fly

I don’t care if I die

Don’t ever leave me don’t ever say good-bye
