Now’s The Time |
(charlie parker tune: Eddie Jefferson arrangement) |
Verse I |
I never thought you’d be, so awfully close to me. |
Until I heard the message that after set me free. |
That made me want to linger, want to hang around. |
Better understanding of these different kind of sounds. |
Back in '42, Bird came to New York and blew, my but he blew… |
Verse II |
Come reminesce with me, and think about the Bird. |
Remember everything he did and all the things you heard. |
Oh, don’t it just amaze ya, gets ya down inside… |
To think of how he had to live, then the way he died. |
Life was so unkind, cause now would have been his time… now was his time. |
