Josephine Baker (Live) - Al Stewart[00:00:02]

I was watching TV late last night[00:00:14]

And a scene transported me[00:00:18]

Long gone figures came back to life[00:00:21]

In a documentary[00:00:24]

Though I saw them dance for joy[00:00:28]

I was sad I missed that show[00:00:30]

If I had a time machine[00:00:34]

I know just where I'd go[00:00:37]

I was born too late to see Josephine Baker[00:00:42]

Dancing in a Paris cabaret[00:00:45]

Born too late to see Josephine Baker[00:00:49]

She must have been great in her heyday[00:00:51]

Now some they stand out from a crowd[00:01:08]

Even at an early age[00:01:10]

I believe that her call was loud[00:01:14]

'Cause she just lit up the stage[00:01:16]

You can put on all that gloss[00:01:20]

And still not have to feel[00:01:23]

What's inside will come across[00:01:26]

And only real is real[00:01:29]

I was born too late to see Josephine Baker[00:01:34]

Dancing in a Paris cabaret[00:01:37]

Born too late to see Josephine Baker[00:01:40]

She must have been great in her heyday[00:01:43]

I'm sometimes trapped by the close confines[00:02:24]

Of the age I'm born into[00:02:27]

Though there were others worse than mine[00:02:30]

Well I miss what I can't do[00:02:33]

Join the feast of Ancient Greece[00:02:37]

See Alexander's Library[00:02:39]

Maybe clink a champagne toast[00:02:43]

With a jazz age dancing queen[00:02:46]

I was born too late to see Josephine Baker[00:02:50]

Dancing in a Paris cabaret[00:02:54]

Born too late to see Josephine Baker[00:02:57]

Dancing in a Paris cabaret[00:03:00]

In black and white film you can't mistake her[00:03:03]

She must have been great in her heyday[00:03:06]
