The Vision Of Rassan Medley |
This is my |
My dedication |
A song to a father |
From one to another |
One to another |
A brother to a brother |
Cast your mind back (ooh ooh ooh) |
To black Africa (ooh ooh ooh) |
Little wooden ships (ooh ooh ooh) |
Crossing the ocean (ooh ooh ooh) |
Little wooden ships (ooh ooh ooh) |
Landing on the shoreline (ooh ooh ooh) |
The name of the place, Lord (ooh ooh ooh) |
Is New-Orleans (ooh ooh ooh) |
Remember Jelly Roll Morton (ooh ooh ooh) |
Later Charlie Bird Parker (ooh ooh ooh) |
Travel to the North, yes (ooh ooh ooh) |
With Charlie Bird Parker (ooh ooh ooh) |
People going insane, yes (ooh ooh ooh) |
With John Coltrane, Lord (ooh ooh ooh) |
But can you dig on his name now? |
(ooh ooh ooh) |
I say it’s Roll on Kirk, now (ooh ooh ooh) |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk, yeah |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk on, check it one more time |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll, oh, Roll on Kirk on, mmm mmm |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk on, yeah |
Watch him move |
Every movement speaks now |
Seems his tender fingers |
Is strangled in your cheeks now |
He does a little dance |
And he stomps on his feet now |
Yeah he moan and moan and blows |
The bellows in his cheeks now |
Come on, baby |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk, go baby |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk on |
Come aboard the ship |
It is a beautiful trip, Lord |
You’re welcome aboard, yes |
Especially if you’re hip, child |
Watch him closely |
While he makes up to the world now |
He makes a woman aware of man, ooh |
A man of a goal, now |
Oh, make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll, Roll on Kirk, yeah |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make a-'em work, m-make a-'em work |
Roll on Kirk on, now |
Yes, the captain’s at the wheel, Lord |
Take you on a trip, yeah |
You all got to excel |
To the invisible whip, now |
It’s driving me, oh no |
I got to flow farther |
Help me, sister |
Help me, brother |
Take my hand, yeah |
And meet me to the bellow |
Keep it to my father |
Come on with me, brother |
Mmm, Children |
Llittle bit children, yeah |
Mmm, make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk, Lord |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk, mama |
Make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk, Lord, mmm-hmm-hmm |
Everything has a dream |
Everything has a scheme |
Let’s search for |
Their reasons together |
The reason together |
Make 'em work, make 'em work, make 'em work |
Roll on Kirk, all right |
Hey man |
You need of any woman |
R-R-R-R-Rassan |
Roll on Kirk |
R-R-R-R-Rassan |
R-R-R-R-Rassan |
R-R-R-R-Rassan |
Rassan -san -san |
