The Old Music Master - Nat King Cole (纳·京·高尔)[00:00:00]
Written by:Carmichael/Mercer[00:00:01]
One night long ago by the light of the moon[00:00:20]
An old music master sat composing a tune[00:00:25]
His heart will be soaring and his heart full of joy[00:00:30]
When right out of nowhere stepped[00:00:35]
A little colored boy[00:00:38]
You gotta jump it music master[00:00:41]
You gotta play that rhythm faster[00:00:43]
You're never gonna get it played[00:00:46]
On the happy cat hit parade[00:00:47]
You better tell your friend beethoven[00:00:50]
And mister reginald de koven[00:00:52]
They better do the same as you[00:00:55]
Or they're gonna be corny too[00:00:57]
Long about nineteen seventeen[00:00:59]
Jazz'll come upon the scene[00:01:02]
Then about nineteen thirty five[00:01:04]
You'll begin to hear swing[00:01:06]
Boogie woogie and jive[00:01:07]
You gotta show that big broadcaster[00:01:08]
That you're a solid music master[00:01:11]
And you'll achieve posterity[00:01:13]
That's a bit of advice from me[00:01:15]
The old music master simply sat there amazed[00:01:22]
As wide eyed and open mouthed[00:01:27]
He gazed and he gazed[00:01:29]
How can you be certain little boy tell me how[00:01:31]
Because I was born my friend[00:01:36]
One hundred years from now[00:01:38]
He hit a chord that rocked the spinet[00:01:41]
And disappeared into the infinite[00:01:43]
And up until this present day[00:01:45]
Ev'rything has happened that a way[00:01:47]
He hit a chord that rocked the spinet[00:02:08]
And disappeared into the infinite[00:02:10]
And up until this present day[00:02:13]
You can take it from me[00:02:14]
He's as right as can be[00:02:17]
Ev'rything has happened that away[00:02:19]
