Testo Monologue - Count Basie
Testo della canzone Monologue (Count Basie), tratta dall'album Live & Swingin': The Ultimate Rat Pack Collection
Thank you ladies and gentlemen
Thank you
And good morning
Welcome to the Chez Paree
In Des Moines, Iowa
Oh, it's a long way out here, ain't it?
Got so that when we leave the hotel, we take peppers and egg
Sandwiches and everything else, because
We don't know if we're gonna get here
We got a little sausage and beer, bread and wine, it's beautiful
But you see, we've had a chauffeur who was unsure as to how
To reach this place, so I found out the real way to get here
Of course, I read in the paper that they raided
Some mythical dice game out here, you know?
So I said to the driver, "When you see a bunch
Of cops standin' around, that's where we go"
Hahaha
Oh, boy
About a month ago, I did an album with the great
Count Basie Band, which will be released in January
And the reason I got to sing with Basie
First is that Smokey the Bear was out of town
That Sammy Jr
Otherwise, he would have been there first
It was a great thrill for me to work with the Basie Band, and we'd
Like to give you a small sample of what the album is gonna sound
