i know they’re gonna run to me
A7
when they get across the sea
D7 G
every chance to win when washington lands in france
( silence )
all safe for now sugar baby
oh mama don’t you weep and moan
uncle sam got your man and gone
now they’re doing the lindy bird across the sea ( intro is played here )
oh mama how can it be
you went way across the sea
just to keep from doing that lindy bird with me
oh baby well i done told you now
you should have seen me with my uniform on
i could lindy just as sure as you’re born
and then i’d do that lindy bird with you ( intro )
i asked her for a piece of banana
she said let me play the blues on your piano
and then i’ll do that lindy bird with you
she said she had a dream about a submarine
i asked her for a glass of kaola
she said let me play the blues on your victrola
and then i’ll do the lindy bird with you ( intro )
