Flip, Flop, & Fly

As performed on 'Briefcase Full Of Blues'





            Well now when I get the blues, gonna get me a rockin' chair

            Well now when I get the blues, gonna get me a rockin' chair

            When the blues overtake 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

            Well, I call my baby, tell her I'm on my way back home



            Well, flip, flop & fly

            I don't care if I die

            Flip, flop & fly

            I don't care if I die

            Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye


            Give me one last kiss; hold it a long, long time

            Give me one last kiss; hold it a long, long time

            Well, hold that kiss 'til I feel it in my head like wine



            Well, here come my baby, flashin' a new gold tooth

            Well, here come my baby, flashin' a new gold tooth

            Well, she's so small she can mambo in a pay phone booth



            Well, flip, flop & fly

            I don't care if I die

            Flip, flop & fly

            I don't care if I die

            Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye


            Lou Marini!


            Well, like a Mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump

            Well, like a Mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump

            I got so many women I don't know which way to jump



            Well, flip, flop & fly

            I don't care if I die

            Flip, flop & fly

            I don't care if I die

            Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye
