Tekst piosenki[]
1978 - Winterland (Official)
When I get the blues gonna give me a rockin' chair
When I get the blues gonna give me a rockin' chair
When the blues overtake, gonna rock rock away from here
When I get lonesome, I get right on the telephone
Call my baby, and tell her I'm gonna come back home
I say little darling, please have my dinner ready
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 goodbye
Here comes by baby, flashing a new gold tooth
Here comes by baby, flashing a new gold tooth
If she shows more, she can rock home with the bacon too
I've got a Mississipi bullfrog sitting on a hollow stone
I've got a Mississipi bullfrog sitting on a hollow stone
Blues Brothers - Flip, flop and fly
I've got to work for this guy - I don't know which way to turn
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 goodbye
Give me one last kiss and hold it a long long time
Give me one last kiss and hold it a long long time
I wanna feel that kiss till my head run feels like wine
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 goodbye
