Hop on over to somewhere???

Is this a formal and/or common expression at all?
In my experience "hopping on" is a transitive verbal phrase, which means to get on to a vehicle, the noun that indicates the vehicle is not omittable in the sentence.

So where did this expression even come from? It's indecipherable to me.

It's like "come on over!" The "on" just adds something like "proceed."

I think we've all heard
