Mr Gallagher and Mr Shean - Original Mono - Bing Crosby (平克·劳斯)
Oh Mr. Crosby yeah oh Mr. Crosby ask me son
All the orchestras are swinging it today
And I wanted to find out what the noise is all about
Do you really think that swing is here to stay
Well I'm glad you asked me
Mr. Mercer yeah oh Mr. Mercer I'm listening
Swing is really much too ancient to condemn
Why you don't say
In the jungles they would play in that same abandoned way
On the level Mr. Crosby
No on the down beat Mr. M
Oh Mr. Crosby uh huh now Mr. Crosby
So happy to oblige
I've been reading in the latest magazine yes
That a jiving jitterbug blows his top and cuts a rug
Will you tell me what that language really means
Ohhh Mr. Mercer yeah yeah oh ho ho Mr. Mercer
Tell me tell me tell me
As a student of the slang they use pro tem pro what
That just means a solid gait cuts a murderisitc plate
That's amazing Mr. Crosby
That's elementary Mr. M
Oh Mr. Crosby dear Doctor Crosby
Is it true that swing another name for jazz
And the first place it was played
Was a New Orleans parade
And the southern negro gave it all it had
Ohhh Mr. Mercer Mr. Mercer Mr. Mercer Mr. Mercer
I believe that it's foundation came from them
Are you positive
Yes they just slowed the tempo down
And then they really went to town
Allegretto Mr. Crosby
Alligators Mr. M
Ohhh Mr. Mercer yeah oh oh Mr. Mercer uh huh
Well I trust that I have made the matter clear
It's really too clear
So if someone plays a thing
You're gonna understand the swing
And appreciate the rhythm that you hear
Ohh Mr. Crosby oh hear me talking to you
No Mr. Crosby
I'm afraid that type of rhythm's not for me
I prefer my music played A La Schubert Serenade
Sorta retardo Mr. Mercer
Sorta Lombardo Mr. C
