Lyrics
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away If you can use some exotic booze There's a bar in far Bombay Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru In llama-land there's a one-man band And he'll toot his flute for you Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue

Once I get you up there Where the air is rarefied We'll just glide Starry-eyed Once I get you up there I'll be holding you so near You may hear Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Weather-wise, it's such a cool cool day Just say the words and we'll beat the birds Back to Acapulco Bay It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Once I get you up there Where the air is rarefied We'll just glide Starry-eyed Once I get you up there I'll be holding you so near You may hear Angels cheer, 'cause we're together

Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day If you say the word, we will beat those birds Back to Acapulco Bay It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say Come fly with me, let's fly, let,s fly, Pack up, let's fly away
