[00:00.00]Blow-Top Blues - Lionel Hampton and His Orchestra
[00:33.57]I've got bad news baby
[00:37.70]And you're the first to know
[00:44.13]Yes I've got bad news baby
[00:47.76]And you're the first to know
[00:55.95]I discovered this mornin'
[00:59.28]That my top is about to go
[01:06.61]I've been rockin' on my feet
[01:10.10]And talkin' all out of my head
[01:17.41]Yes I've been rockin' on my feet
[01:21.59]And talkin' all out of my head
[01:28.72]Yes and when I get through talkin'
[01:32.58]Can't remember a thing I said
[02:14.53]Used to be a sharpie
[02:16.49]Always dressed in the latest styles
[02:20.42]Now I'm walkin' down Broadway
[02:22.37]Wearin' nothin' but a smile
[02:25.43]I see all kinds o' little men
[02:27.75]Although they're never there
[02:31.06]I try to push the"A" trail
[02:33.23]And put whisky in my hair
[02:35.99]I'm a girl you can't excuse
[02:39.25]I've got those blow top blues
[02:47.39]Last night I was five feet tall
[02:50.71]Today I'm eight feet ten
[02:53.27]And every time I fall down stairs
[02:56.29]I float right up again
[02:59.06]When someone turned the lights on me
[03:01.86]It like to drove me blind
[03:04.78]I woke up in Belle Vue
[03:07.38]But I left my mind behind
[03:10.50]I'm a gal who blew a fuse
[03:13.39]I've got those blow top blues
