On a weekend pass I wouldn't have had time,
To get home and marry that baby of mine.
So I want to the Chaplain and he authorized
Me to send for my Ebony Eyes.
My Ebony Eyes was comin' to me,
From out of the skies on Flight 1203.
In a hour or two I would whisper, "I do,"
To my beautiful Ebony Eyes.
Spoken:
The plane was way overdue. So I went inside to the airlines desk. I said sir,
"I wonder why 1203 is so late?"
He said, "Oh, they probably took off late or they may have run into some
turbulant weather, and had to alter their course.
So I went back outside and I waited at the gate. And I watched the beacon
light from the control tower as it whipped through the dark of ebony skies.
As if it were searching for (my ebony eyes).
And then come the announcement over the loudspeaker, "Will those having

across the street at once."
Sung:
Then I felt a burning great, deep inside,
And I knew the heavenly ebony skies,
Had taken my life's most wonderful prize.
My beautiful Ebony Eyes.
If I ever get to heaven I'll bet,
The first angel I'll recognize,
She'll smile at me and I know she will be,
My beautiful Ebony Eyes.
