MELODY FOR C
Come Jam with me;
Come on and play the licks the way
that jazz ought to be.
Come on and jam with me,
Sonny’s Melody for C.
*
And we'll swing
and we’ll play,
and we’ll play,
Like pretty Sonny
used to smoke it back in the day;
used to smoke it back in the day;
Come on and jam with me,
Sonny’s Melody for C.
Sonny’s Melody for C.
*
Come one
and come all;
and come all;
Come on and bring your horns
and we will have us a ball.
and we will have us a ball.
Come on and jam with me,
Sonny’s Melody for C.
Sonny’s Melody for C.
*
And we'll bring
down the house,
down the house,
Like Billy Higgins swung behind
the mean Charlie Rouse;
the mean Charlie Rouse;
Come on and jam with me,
Sonny’s Melody for C.
Sonny’s Melody for C.
Religious bigotry: It's not that I hate everyone who doesn't look, think, and act like me - it's just that God does.
