Let's Take A Trip In My Aeroplane 1911

Young Johnnie had need
of much greater speed,
to keep pace with boys of his set;
For he had grown wise,
that others had eyes
for Mollie his charming brunette,
He planned to skiddoo,
to skies ever blue,
for John owned an aeroplane,
There Cupid would see,
that alone they should be,
so he sang to her this sweet refrain:

Let's take a trip in my aeroplane
just for a little joy ride:
We'll go up in sunshine or rain,
Up in the clouds we'll hide.
We will find Cupid,
love's pilot old,
his care and protection obtain,
as we fly, we will cry:
"Ship ahoy, Ship ahoy,"
Up in my aeroplane.

Let's take a trip in my aeroplane
just for a little joy ride:
We'll go up in sunshine or rain,
Up in the clouds we'll hide.
We will find Cupid,
love's pilot old,
his care and protection obtain,
as we fly, we will cry:
"Ship ahoy, Ship ahoy,"
Up in my aeroplane.

"Indeed will a trip,
in your dear airship,
charm me," cried the maid with delight.
"To Venus we'll go,
our worship bestow
as heart meeteth heart in her light."
So John cried: "Aboard!"
away the two soared,
and soon her love he did gain,
and now he still sings,
when he's upon the wings,
to his Mollie,
this same sweet refrain:

Let's take a trip in my aeroplane
just for a little joy ride:
We'll go up in sunshine or rain,
Up in the clouds we'll hide.
We will find Cupid,
love's pilot old,
his care and protection obtain,
as we fly, we will cry:
"Ship ahoy, Ship ahoy,"
Up in my aeroplane.

Let's take a trip in my aeroplane
just for a little joy ride:
We'll go up in sunshine or rain,
Up in the clouds we'll hide.
We will find Cupid,
love's pilot old,
his care and protection obtain,
as we fly, we will cry:
"Ship ahoy, Ship ahoy,"
Up in my aeroplane.
