Blue Serenade

(앨범: The Offbeat Of Avenues - 1991)

Hot to trot shot
Out to the hot spot
Up to the nines with bodies in line
An' feeling so fine
What's to lose, go get 'em shoes

You take a train, you find a
Fascinating rhythm in the rain
At every stop
You hear the clipping and the clop

You take a beat, you find a
Fascinating rhythm in your feet
It's so complete and you know
Nothing can compete

(You ain't seen nothing, you ain't seen nothing yet!)

You start to palpitate and the
Jeep is shaking the snake
Like a man upon the move for a
Doll who doesn't hesitate
Bad John
You hear the sound of a sad song

And when the downtown folk
All shake it on out tonight
Jeep is jake and raking in the take
Bad John
You are back where you belong

She's such a sight tonight (Hello)
A Caribana with a fan a top banana
In a blue savanna moon
A neck in neck
You tell her darling get the check
You're all electric
Up in Harlem in a swoon
Another dance with a with a tropical fan
Another chance with
The topical tan

Mean swimming saxophones
Taking in the wimming and
Shaking them bones
The goat get in the fete begin
Naughty in the body and set for sin
A Creole girl step up and say
"Never say never"
With a casual sway
Taking her time to come my way
Bad John
You are back where you belong

All reet I'm tipping in, deed I do
And while the goat is on the fire
And every note is your desire
You approve her every move
You in a spin (Come on in)
She wanna grab you by the duff
And tell you
Honey this is tough enough
For sure
There's the door
What are you waiting for?
And just us two
Serenading in Blue

You take a frail who makes a
Copesetic caper with her tail
I'm telling you, she really
Putting on a do

The saxophones, you can't relax
When there is rhythm in your bones
You're on the hoof
You raise a racket on the roof

Some syncopation, making with the
Eyes an arising occasion
Made it in the shade the way they
Played that satin Serenade in Blue
