Boogie Woogie Flying Cloud Lyrics - Hank Snow

I was singin' the blues and now I'm shoutin' hooray 

Cause I met a pretty mama and I met her today 

Well her eyes started cheatin' my heart started beatin' aloud 

like the rhythmatic motors of the Boogie Woogie Flying Cloud 

Now the Flying Cloud is a luxury liner 

It flies from San Diego down to Carolina 

Then she boogies to Georgia and back to old Alabam 

No use denyin' makin' love when you're flyin' is grand 

She's a silber comet every engine in tune 

She boogied us out 'neath the silvery moon 

The stars started blinkin' when my baby started thinkin' aloud 

And told me that she loved me on Boogie Woogie Flying Cloud 

[ guitar ] 

Well I hugged my baby and we started to kiss 

The Flying Cloud's motors all started to miss 

She jumped in to jive as the crew started singin' a song 

And we headed for Dixie while the Flying Cloud boogied along 

When I told my baby a fortune I'd give 'er 

The big plane trembled and she started to quiver 

She headed for the sky then she swung and came on back down 

But we kept a lovin' as the Flying Cloud boogied around 

Wasn't takin' no chances cause I got a bit scary 

Thought I'd wait till we landed then I'd ask her to marry 

But changed my mind as we boogied out over the line 

And I popped the question as the big Cloud boogied on time 

[ guitar ] 

Well she started to truck and then she jumped to hep 

She looped the loop but never lost a step 

When she started descendin' for a boogie woogie landin' I vowed 

I'm preparin' my weddin' on the Boogie Woogie Flying Cloud 

When the big propellers they came to a stop 

My old heart inside me went flippity flop 

I took my baby and wandered out through the crowd 

When we landed in Dixie on the Boogie Woogie Flying Cloud
