Now They Call It Swing - Billie Holiday (比莉·哈乐黛)[00:00:00]
Written by:Billie Holiday/Lester Young[00:00:01]
Once they called it ragtime[00:00:08]
And it had its fling[00:00:10]
It's the same old syncopation[00:00:13]
Now they call it swing[00:00:16]
Then they played it jazz time[00:00:19]
To a buck-and-wing[00:00:22]
Once again it sweeped the nation[00:00:25]
Now they call it swing[00:00:28]
When singers used to sing[00:00:31]
They would go hot cha[00:00:34]
But with this modern thing[00:00:37]
Now they go dru-du du dra-da-da[00:00:40]
Rhythm has its seasons[00:00:43]
Summer fall and spring[00:00:46]
But for seven silly reasons[00:00:49]
Someone pulled the string[00:00:52]
And they started dancing[00:00:55]
Now they call it swing[00:00:58]
Once they called it ragtime[00:01:55]
And it had its fling[00:01:58]
It's the same old syncopation[00:02:01]
Now they call it swing[00:02:04]
Then they played it jazz time[00:02:07]
To a buck-and-wing[00:02:10]
Once again it sweeped the nation[00:02:13]
Now they call it swing[00:02:16]
When singers used to sing[00:02:19]
They would go hot cha[00:02:22]
But with this modern thing[00:02:25]
Now they go dru-du du dra-da-da[00:02:28]
Rhythm has its seasons[00:02:32]
Summer fall and spring[00:02:34]
But for seven silly reasons[00:02:37]
Someone pulled the string[00:02:41]
And they started dancing[00:02:44]
Now they call it swing[00:02:47]
Baby they call it swing[00:02:54]
