The Lip - Louis Prima (路易斯·普利马)/D.R[00:00:00]

Written by：Raymond Klages/T. E. Klages/Vic Knight/Sr Knight Vick[00:00:00]

Down on the mississippi river[00:00:06]

In a knockdo' dive[00:00:08]

I met a trumpet playin' character and man alive[00:00:10]

When he began to rip[00:00:13]

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[00:00:27]

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

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

Just for kicks[00:00:33]

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

He says I'll tell you hon[00:00:35]

I read a little bit[00:00:37]

But not enough to hurt me none[00:00:38]

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[00:00:48]

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[00:00:54]

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[00:01:07]

Play a note so high[00:01:09]

And I had to coax a lot before[00:01:10]

The lip would tell me why[00:01:12]

Then he took out a little jar that's labeled[00:01:14]

High note grease[00:01:16]

And he rubs a little every night on his mouthpiece[00:01:17]

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:21]

No one plays high notes like the lip[00:01:23]

Listen here gal[00:01:26]

Are you kiddin' 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[00:01:49]

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

Full of goldfish legs[00:01:53]

And hang 'em on a sky hook in the midnight sun[00:01:55]

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]
