The Lip (1999 Digital Remaster) - Louis Prima[00:00:01]

Down on the Mississippi River in a knockdo dive[00:00:06]

I met a trumpet playing character and Man alive[00:00:10]

When he began to rip[00:00:14]

He really played it from the hip[00:00:14]

And when I asked about his name [00:00:17]

They told me That's The Lip[00:00:18]

Yip yip yip yip[00:00:20]

No one plays high notes like The Lip[00:00:22]

He's got a tone[00:00:26]

That's reminiscent of a boy named Bix[00:00:27]

He plays so high that only dogs[00:00:30]

Can hear him just for kicks [00:00:32]

And when I asked him does he read[00:00:33]

He says [00:00:35]

I'll tell you hon[00:00:36]

I read a little bit but not enough to hurt me none[00:00:37]

Yip yip yip yip [00:00:40]

No one plays high notes like The Lip [00:00:43]

I said The Lip [00:00:47]

She must mean Ray Anthony huh[00:00:49]

I said The Lip [00:00:50]

No man she means Harry James [00:00:51]

I said The Lip [00:00:54]

You mean Louis Prima [00:00:55]

I said The Lip [00:00:57]

Noo LIP-er-ace [00:00:58]

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:00]

No one plays high notes like The Lip [00:01:03]

I never heard a trumpet player play a note so high[00:01:07]

And I had to coax a lot[00:01:11]

Before The Lip would tell me why[00:01:12]

Then he took out a little jar[00:01:14]

That's labeled High-note Grease[00:01:16]

And he rubs a little every night on his mouthpiece[00:01:18]

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:21]

No one plays high notes like The Lip [00:01:23]

Listen here gal are you kidding[00:01:26]

About all that high-note grease[00:01:28]

No man I swear he had ten in his valise [00:01:31]

What you mean he goes to the drugstore[00:01:35]

And gets them from the medecine shelf[00:01:36]

No some cat's told me he makes it himself [00:01:38]

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:41]

Tell us the secret of The Lip [00:01:43]

Well you take a buketful of steam[00:01:46]

And a dozen rooster eggs[00:01:48]

And you mix 'em up gently[00:01:51]

With a bushel full of goldfish legs[00:01:52]

And ya hang 'em[00:01:55]

On a sky hook in the midnight sun[00:01:56]

Mmm and then you fry them until they're done [00:01:58]

Yip yip yip yip[00:02:01]

That's the secret of The Lip[00:02:04]
