Nighttown, Lady Bright - Kurt Elling[00:00:00]
Nighttown lady bright in the arms of night[00:00:21]
Heading homeward[00:00:32]
High over hey oh[00:00:41]
Size[00:00:56]
Nightown lady bright in the arms of night[00:01:04]
Heading homeward[00:01:16]
High over hey oh[00:01:24]
Size[00:01:40]
Night life[00:03:22]
Night life is cut out of a very luxurious[00:03:28]
Royal blue bolt of velvet[00:03:32]
It sparkles with jewels[00:03:38]
And it sparkles in tingling and tinkling tones[00:03:41]
Some of it's sparkles are more precious[00:03:49]
Than precious stones[00:03:51]
Others are just splashes of costume jewelry[00:03:55]
Night life seems to have been born with all of[00:04:03]
It's people in it[00:04:07]
The people who had never been babies[00:04:10]
But were born grown[00:04:14]
Completely independent[00:04:17]
Some of them were wonderful people[00:04:22]
And some were just hangers on of the sort[00:04:24]
Some of them experienced untold misfortunes[00:04:29]
And some were very lucky[00:04:33]
Some folks glittered in night life[00:04:40]
Even more brightly than their own names[00:04:42]
On the marquees[00:04:45]
Some played sure things[00:04:48]
Others were inclined to gamble[00:04:51]
There were a few hustlers who depended[00:04:55]
On finding suckers for survival[00:04:57]
And there were some who were to wise to hustle[00:05:00]
Who only wanted to have enough money[00:05:04]
To be able to afford to be a sucker[00:05:08]
Night life had a song and a dance[00:05:14]
Night life was new york[00:05:19]
Chicago[00:05:22]
San francisco[00:05:23]
Paris[00:05:25]
Berlin[00:05:26]
Uptown[00:05:28]
Downtown[00:05:30]
Harlem[00:05:32]
Out south[00:05:35]
Anywhere they wore that gorgeous velvet mantle[00:05:38]
Duke ellington[00:05:48]
Nighttown lady bright in the arms of night[00:07:26]
Heading homeward[00:07:38]
High overhey oh[00:07:46]
Size[00:08:03]
Size[00:08:14]
Nighttown[00:08:21]
Amen[00:08:32]
