And the Melody Still Lingers On (Night in Tunisia) |
A long time ago in the 40's |
Dizzy and bird gave us this song |
They called it «a night in tunisia» |
And the melody still lingers on It was new and very strange |
Blew the squares right off the stage |
Few could play along |
But the melody still lingers on Max and miles to name just two |
Together they grew |
The music was young and strong |
And the melody still lingers on They paved the way for generations |
From coltrane to stevie |
No one could stop the winds of change |
Without them where’d we be? |
The duke and the prez were there before |
The past you can’t ignore |
The torch is lit, we’ll keep the flame |
And the melody remains the same |
In the 40's |
A night in tunisia |
In the 40's |
A night in tunisia |
In the 40's |
A night in tunisia |
In the 40's |
A night in tunisia |
