Boy, am I a bad boy. Thanks to a tip from Joan McGinnis, someone is 
selling Go Fly A Kite on eBay at the moment. The seller was kind enough 
to have put photos of the whole score up for examination. Well, I kind 
of "borrowed" the images and made these PDF files for whoever desires.

Note, these are photos; not scans. So there is a fair amount of 
alignment distortion. But, you can read the music. The music collectors 
amongst us will certainly growl. I do not collect; I play.

All the best, Gary



Hi All,

When I played with Rosy McHargue, he did a tune called Go Fly A Kite. Does
anyone have the music for this? It isn't in the Anderson index.

Here's Bing singing it : http://www.youtube.com/watch?**v=MWLCPGGuXBI<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWLCPGGuXBI>

Is the banter before the 'song' the verse?

All the best, Gary


"Go Fly A Kite"

Go fly a kite and tie your troubles to the tail
They'll be blown away by a merry gale,
Go fly a kite and toss your worries to the wind
And they won't come back, they'll be too chagrined.
Go on make friends with the sky
Have a talk with the sun
It's the bright way to live, if you'll pardon the pun
Go fly a kite and you'll imagine you're a king
Cause you've got your world on a piece of string
