Luyện nghe bài hát He Was The Cat (A Tribute to Eddie Jefferson)

There was a named Jefferson who
Would it up with the band
A vocalizin phenomenon who they to call the Main Man
He would think a sage, sing like a horn
And on the stage somethin special was born
He swing, dit n doo dat
He was The Cat.
He sang with in 57
He put a to bop
When little Benny came from Heaven
He put it the top
Jazz was hot in the East, cool in the
But his it was simply the best
man, couldnt he scat
He was The Cat.
Eddie was hip but as an old man
Takin that trip to Coleman
Lettin it rip on and Soul man
And oh hed do, the poetry flew
A founding was Jefferson but
He got the acclaim
Were here to tell you hes the one that
Put in the game
He dig sittin in, blowin the hit
And he would spin out a story to fit
He was acrobat
He was The Cat.
There was a time when there was jazz up on every corner
would sit and listen as they blew
Tellin they knew in each his own way
the news, bop to blues
Set the moods any way theyd to
Innovation was always
Electrifyin the air everywhere be, let me tell ya
All around youd the sound of life abounding free
Comin out of a horn, born a new way
Never what youd hear
First we heard from The
Then the word on the was so choice:
Jeffersons voice, what a beautiful noise
Master of a and what an inventor
Singin with the of jazz at the center
Anyone hear it knew that he was a mentor
Enter for the the sound
You found the rhythm where you can marry vocabulary
To every melody you hear
For when would sing, the story was king
Hed talk about a thing, then be sockin it like the of a bat
He sang it that!
He embrace his lyrical zen to
Tickle phrases like he was meant to
us to places nobodyd been to
An Everest climb, the kind!
Charlie Parker and Moody played it
There was a in the crowd
And then Eddie would elevate it
The jazz bowed
Hed evoke what we heard on the soloin
And make every word tell a besides
And were all our hat!
He Was The Cat.
