| Hey, Buddy Bolden | ||
| (1956) Billy Strayhorn, Duke Ellington | ||
|
Buddy Bolden tune up Blowing horn was his game Born with a silver trumpet in his mouth He played the horn before he talked Born on the after beat He patted his foot before walked When Buddy Bolden tuned up you could hear him clean Clean across the river clean across the river He woke up the working people and kept the easy living Call on Buddy Bolden call him Buddy Bolden Watch it he's calling his flock now He's calling his flock now here they come Call him Buddy Bolden he's calling his flock now Here they come here they come Come on Buddy Bolden here they come |
