Come Take a Trip in My Airship
Ren Shields / George Evans 1904
Come, take a trip in my airship, come take a sail 'mong the stars
Come, have a ride around Venus. Come, have a spin around Mars
No one to watch while we're kissing; No one to see while we spoon
Come, take a trip in my airship, and we'll visit the man in the moon
I love a sailor, the sailor loves me, And sails every night to my home
He's not a sailor that sails o'er the sea, Or over the wild briny foam;
For he owns an airship and sails up on high, He's just like a bird on the wing
And when the shadows of evening draw nigh, He'll sail to my window and sing
Come, take a trip in my airship, come take a sail 'mong the stars
Come, have a ride around Venus. Come, have a spin around Mars
No one to watch while we're kissing; No one to see while we spoon
Come, take a trip in my airship, and we'll visit the man in the moon
One night, while sailing away from the crowds, We passed through the milky white way
Just idly sailing and watching the clouds, He asked me if I'd name the day.
And right near the dipper I gave him my heart. The sun shines on our honeymoon.
We swore from each other we never would part, And teach all the babies this tune
Come, take a trip in my airship, come take a sail 'mong the stars
Come, have a ride around Venus. Come, have a spin around Mars
No one to watch while we're kissing; No one to see while we spoon
Come, take a trip in my airship, and we'll visit the man in the moon
