Goodbye Pork Pie Hat |
| He put all of his soul |
| Into a tenor saxophone |
| He had a way a talking |
| 't was a language of his own |
| Life story love and glory |
| If you listen when he plays it for you |
| Now listen and listen, and dig it |
| Can you dig it? |
| Lester Young is playing what is feeling |
| Dealing and dancing you home |
| When Charlie speaks of Lester |
| You know that someone great has gone |
| The sweetest swinging music man |
| Had a Porkie Pie hat on |
| A bright star in a dark age |
| When the bandstands had a thousand ways |
| Of refusing a blackman admission |
| Black musician |
| In those days they put him in an underdog position |
| Cellars and chittlins |
