Big Bands |
I smile like Herbert Hoover when they play |
I dream of banker’s daughters, better days |
Care to dance my lady |
Live near here? |
They certainly sound in fine form, do you care? |
I am quite partial |
Broke, spent, I still marshall (all my strenght when big bands play) |
Follow me my lady to my home |
See my large collection, some on loan |
Of every big band record ever made |
I had to sell my heater, so don’t shake |
I am quite partial |
Broke, spent, I still marshal all my strength when big bands blare |
I smile like Herbert Hoover when the big bands play |
I dream of banker’s daughters, better days |
For I am quite partial |
Broke, spent, I marshal all my strength when big bands play |
Knowing of their flare for filling empty |
stomachs, empty hearts, they’re not so far apart, they’re not so far apart |
And if you can’t sleep late one night, |
It’s not your coffee, it’s the bunk |
I am quite partial |
Broke, spent, I still marshall all my strength |
I smile like Herbert Hoover when the big bands play |
I frequent the dance halls most every night into the day |
I know the name of every trombone player that exists |
They don’t know I used to blow before the Crash had hit our land |
Before the Crash |
I find it so much warmer in the ballroom than at home |
A common bond unites us so we’re really not alone |
Sure we’ve got some problems, but tonight we won’t admit it Take my hand my lady friend, we’ll make it seem like we were there tonight |
