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 used to the Main Man
He would like a sage, sing like a horn
And there on the somethin special was born
He swing, dit n doo dat
He was The Cat.
He with Moody in 57
He put a to bop
When little Benny came down Heaven
He put it the top
Jazz was hot in the East, cool in the
But his vocalese it was simply the
Because man, couldnt he
He was The Cat.
Eddie was hip but as an old man
Takin that to celebrate Coleman
it rip on Body and Soul man
And oh what hed do, the poetry
A founding was Jefferson but
He never got the
Were to tell you that hes the one that
Put in the game
He would dig sittin in, the hit
And he would spin out a story to fit
He was some
He was The Cat.
There was a time when there was cookin up on every corner
Everybody would sit and listen as blew
stories they knew in each his own way
Tellin the news, bop to
Set the any way theyd want to
Innovation was always
Electrifyin the air youd be, let me tell ya
All around hear the sound of life abounding free
Comin out of a horn, bein a new way
Never knew what youd
First we heard The Bean
Then the word on the scene was so
Jeffersons voice, what a beautiful noise
Master of a lyric and an inventor
Singin with the of jazz at the center
whod hear it knew that he was a mentor
Enter for the the sound
You found the rhythm town you can marry vocabulary
To every melody that you
For when Eddie would sing, the was king
Hed talk about a thing, then be sockin it like the of a bat
He sang it that!
He would his lyrical zen to
those phrases like he was meant to
Take us to places been to
An climb, the cleverest kind!
When Charlie Parker and Moody it
There was a hush in the
And then when would elevate it
The jazz bowed
Hed evoke we heard on the soloin rides
And make every word tell a besides
And all tippin our hat!
He Was The Cat.
