Jeru |
Why don’t you come over 'bout a quarter to nine |
Bring all of your fam’ly and I will bring mine |
If I should bring my brothers, and you bring the others |
Then I can sing a song like Jeru, just for you |
Just for all the lovely people that you see in the road |
We’ll sing them a song in Jeruvian mode |
If I can have a pref’rence, I’ll even make ref’rence |
To why you write a song like Jeru, just for you |
Then if you’d be kind enough to tell me why you |
Write these extended bridges |
Can it be romance that always |
Haunts me in my reverie? |
So why not come on over 'bout a quarter to eight |
If you can come early I’ll never be late |
And now you’re all invited, I hope you’re delighted |
To sing a little song like Jeru, just for you |
Just for me too |
Gather around, tale to be told |
Maybe it’s new, maybe it’s old, listen my friend |
Blowin' away, doin' alright |
Plain' all day, workin' all night, listen again |
Movin' along, coverin' ground |
Singin' the song, lovin' the sound, listen and then |
Blow together birds of a feather |
Out playin' the blues and «I Got Rhythm» |
All at once a moment came without a warning |
Got so hot we had to cool it |
Go for glory, tell you the story |
Out payin' our dues until we found we were |
Assisting at an unexpected borning |
'twas the birth of the Cool |
So now I can tell you why I’m always |
Trying to tell you, listen, come with me |
New York, and we’re together in my reverie |
So why don’t you come over 'bout a quarter to two |
Forget all the others, just me and just you |
And while we’re versifying |
We’d better start trying |
To write another song just for me |
Just for you, one more Jeru |
