===========================================
Well when I get the blues
gonna get me a rocking chair
Oh well when I get the blues
gonna get me a rocking chair
And when the blues overtake me
gonna rock, rock 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 and fly
I don't care if I die
Flip, flop and fly
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 stead-y
here and in my head like wine
For here comes by baby
flashing a new gold tooth
Well, here comes by baby
flashing a new gold tooth
Well, she's so small she can
marvel in a pay phone booth
Well, Flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Flip, flop and fly
Don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodbye
Well, here comes Mississipi bullfrog
sitting on a hollow stone
Well, here comes Mississipi bullfrog
sitting on a hollow stone
I've got so many ways but I don't
know which a way to jump
Well, Flip, flop and fly
I don't care if I die
Flip, flop and fly
Don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me
Don't ever say goodb-y-e
