Destination Moon – Dinah Washington
Come and take a trip in my rocket ship
We’ll have a lovely afternoon
Kiss the world goodbye and away we fly
Destination moon
Travel fast as light ‘til we’re lost from sight
The earth is like a toy balloon
What a thrill you get ridin’ on a jet
Destination moon
We’ll go up up up up
Straight to the moon we two
High in the starry blue
I’ll be out of this world with you
So away we steal in a spacemobile
A supersonic honeymoon
Leave your cares below, pull the switch, let’s go!
Destination moon
There once was a time when the colorful thing to do
Was to call for a date on a bicycle built for two
But cars and trains and even planes
All have had their day
Now the time is due to call for you
In the modern atomic way
We’ll go up up up up
Straight to the moon we two
High in the starry blue
I’ll be out of this world with you
So away we steal in a spacemobile
A supersonic honeymoon
Leave your cares below, pull the switch, let’s go!
