An early morning explenation



I wrote earlier that the song I wanted played in my funeral were Flip, flop and fly with the Blues Brother's. A freind of mine asked why, and the answer is as simple as cause of the lyrics. My mother first introduced me to the song and she was the one hwo said she wanted it played in her funeral first. So I guess I'm a copycat, but the lyrics are genius so I don't care. And here you see why.


Flip, flop and fly.

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 Im gonna come back home
I say little darling, please have my dinner ready

Flip, flop and fly
I dont care if I die
Flip, flop and fly
I dont care if I die
Dont ever leave me
Dont 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
Ive got a mississipi bullfrog sitting on a hollow stone
Ive got a mississipi bullfrog sitting on a hollow stone
Ive got to work for this guy - I dont know which way to turn

Flip, flop and fly
I dont care if I die
Flip, flop and fly
I dont care if I die
Dont ever leave me
Dont 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 dont care if I die
Flip, flop and fly
I dont care if I die
Dont ever leave me
Dont ever say goodbye

A genious of a song :) Very good lyrics and fit for a funeral.
In my funeral I want either
"This Monkey's Gone To Heaven" by Pixies,
"At My Funeral" by Crash Test Dummies
or "The Spirit Carries On" by Dream Theater.
Ooh or maybe Peephole by System of a Down. Or now, I want a quote from that lyrics on the gravestone:
"Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high".
or maybe not... :)
