The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I get the blues, get me a rockin' chair
When I get the blues, get me a rockin' chair
When the blues overtakes me, I'll rock right away from there
When I get lonesome I'll jump on the telephone
When I get lonesome I'll jump on the telephone
Then I'll call my baby, 'till I'm on my way back home
I'll say flip, flop & fly
I don't care if I die
I'll say flip, flop & fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me, and baby don't say goodbye
Give me one more kiss, hold it a long, long time
Give me one more kiss, hold it a long, long time
Yeah love me baby till the feeling hits my head like wine
Well, here come my baby, flashin' a new gold tooth
Well, here come my baby, flashin' a new gold tooth
Ah but she's so small she can mambo in a pay phone booth
I said flip, flop & fly
Don't care if I die
Flip, flop & fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me, baby don't say goodbye
I'm like a Mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump
I'm like a Mississippi bullfrog sittin' on a hollow stump
I got so many women I don't know which way to jump
I said flip, flop & fly
I don't care if I die
I said flip, flop & fly
I don't care if I die
Don't ever leave me, don't ever say goodbye
Oh my!
