Lyrics Flip Flop Fly - Big Joe Turner

Flip Flop Fly

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
