Come, Josephine in My Flying Machine (Up She Goes!)
Words by Alfred Bryan, Music by Fred Fisher
Verse 1: 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
Chorus: 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, "Good-bye!"
Verse 2: 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.
Gee! I'm up in the air
About you for fair
Chorus: 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, "Good-bye!"
