Words and Music by John D. Loudermilk



On a weekend pass I wouldnt have had time

To get home and marry that baby of mine

So I went to the chaplain and he authorized

Me to send for my ebony eyes



My ebony eyes was coming to me

From out of the skies on Flight 1203

In an hour or two I would whisper I do?skies as if it were searching for

(my ebony eyes.) And then came the announcement over the loudspeaker?
