Boogie Woogie Flying Cloud - 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 Alabama. 
No use denyin' makin' love 
When you're flyin' is grand.

She's a silver comet, ev'ry 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. 
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,

Well, she started to truck 
And then she jumped to help
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.
