The Old Music Master - Paul Adam & His Mayfair Music[00:00:00]
One night long ago by the light of the moon[00:00:03]
An old music master sat composing a tune[00:00:06]
His spirit was soaring and his heart full of joy[00:00:08]
When right out of nowhere[00:00:11]
Stepped a little colored boy[00:00:16]
You gotta jump it music master[00:00:20]
You gotta play that rhythm faster[00:00:23]
You're never gonna get it played[00:00:25]
On the Happy Cat Hit Parade[00:00:28]
You better tell your friend Beethoven[00:00:31]
And Mister Reginald De Koven[00:00:34]
They better do the same as you[00:00:37]
Or they're gonna be corny too[00:00:39]
Long about 1917[00:00:42]
Jazz'll come right on the scene[00:00:45]
Then about 19 let me see 35[00:00:47]
You'll begin to hear swing[00:00:50]
Boogie woogie and jive[00:00:51]
You'd better tell that big broadcaster[00:00:53]
That you're a solid music master[00:00:56]
And you'll achieve posterity[00:00:59]
That's a bit of advice from me[00:01:01]
The old music master[00:01:10]
Simply sat there amazed[00:01:10]
As wide-eyed and open-mouthed[00:01:12]
He gazed and he gazed[00:01:13]
How can you be certain little boy[00:01:15]
Tell me how [00:01:16]
Because I was born [00:01:18]
A hundred years from now[00:01:19]
He hit a chord that rocked the spinet[00:01:24]
And disappeared into the infinite[00:01:26]
And up until the present day[00:01:29]
You can take it from me[00:01:32]
He's as right as can be[00:01:33]
Ev'rything has happened that-a-way[00:01:34]
