Lyrics for Song: Fly Right, Baby (1942)
Lyrics for Album: Blues In My Soul 1937/1946 [1997]
You got to fly right baby, if you want to get along with me.
You got to fly right baby, if you wanna get along with me.
Things has changed now baby, 'cause I'm not the fool I use to be.
You fix my breakfast at seven, you fix my dinner at ten.
And if you fifteen minutes late baby, you better tell me where you been.
You got to fly right baby, if you want to get along with me.
In '41 I was your fool, money was all you craved.
In '41 I was your fool, my money was all you craved.
Now I'm gonna set down baby, and let you go out and collar me some slaves.
In 1942 baby, everything been changed around.
In 1942 baby, everything been changed around.
You've had your fun now watch me baby, I've got to kick this gong around
Fly right baby, if you want to get along with me.
Fly right baby, if you want to get along with me.
Now I'm hip to the tip baby, 'cause I ain't the fool I used to be.
