Come Josephine In My Flying Machine

Dick Haymes · Other Songs - Dick Haymes

Oh! Say! Let us fly, dear

Where, kid? To the sky, dear

Oh you flying machine

Jump in, Miss Josephine

Ship ahoy! Oh joy, what a feeling

Where, boy? In the ceiling

Ho, High, Hoopla we fly

To the sky so high



Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up she goes! Up she goes!

Balance yourself like a bird on a beam

In the air she goes! There she goes!

Up, up, a little bit higher

Oh! My! The moon is on fire

Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up, all on, Goodbye!



One, two, now we're off, dear

Say you pretty soft, dear

Whoa! dear don't hit the moon

No, dear, not yet, but soon

You for me, Oh Gee! you're a fly kid

Not me! I'm a sky kid

See I'm up in the air

About you for fair



Come Josephine in my flying machine,

Going up she goes! Up she goes!

Balance yourself like a bird on a beam

In the air she goes! There she goes!

Up, up, a little bit higher

Oh! My! The moon is on fire

Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up, all on, Goodbye!



Come Josephine in my flying machine,

Going up she goes! Up she goes!

Balance yourself like a bird on a beam

In the air she goes! There she goes!

Up, up, a little bit higher

Oh! My! The moon is on fire

Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up, all on, Goodbye!
