glenn miller - the airminded executive lyrics
(bernie hanighen/johnny mercer)
(vocals: tex beneke and dorothy claire)
life, look, pic, peek always print a beautiful cast
and another thing they love
is a certain photograph
you take the time, tide, newsweek, ev’ry editorial staff
over a beer they agree
the man of the year
is the air-minded executive
who dearly loves to fly
he was an up to date go-getter
his lady friend was even better
she went along to take a letter
just to be nearby
the air-minded executive
will take off on the sly
he was a most romantic fella
and all the things he used to tell her
about the role of his propeller
somewhere in the sky
foggy or fair,
gotta be there
lightin’ a flare at the airport
fillin’ the tanks
callin’ the banks
tellin’ them, “hold up the contract!”
contact!
airminded executive became a wealthy guy
and so he wed his secretary
they settled down in waterbury
and they commute by stratos-ferry
my, they love to fly
even as you and i
tb:
(whistle)
dc:
hi, texecutive, whattaya say?
tb:
ah man, i just flew in from the milky way
dc:
well, how’s the missus, tex, can you stay a spell?
tb:
ah, sure is nice to see you all, oh, well
foggy or fair, gotta be there
meetin’ a square at the airport
gotta arrive
happy new jive
maybe i’ll get me a contract
contact!
my, we love to fly!
even as you and i
my!
