As I understand it, as was told to me by my father, this song came about on the Tonight Show on an occasion Roger was a guest. Somehow it came up that he could write a song about anything in a very short amount of time and this was the topic Johnny Carson gave him. In just a few minutes Roger Miller performed Boeing Boeing 707 on the tonight show after writing it while sitting there. This may be apocryphal but is the story I was told.
Can you cut out the pictures of the 737 at the gate, Royal Air Force Comet, 737 coming over the fence and 747-400? Apart from that I LOVE IT after flying as a Steward for 34 years with Qantas! Also had Roger on a flight from Honolulu to Sydney in the Upper Deck of one of our old Boeing 747-238's!

@usetheroute93 are you mentally deranged - this song is horrible. i just said the video is good for whoever has put this together, but yep this song is painful to the ears. and fyi i searched it to show someone else how crap this song is.
oh he'd have had a fieldday with todays issues...

Why would someone choose to put pictures of planes in the video that weren't 707s? 707 pictures really arent that hard to find.
