The Lip - Louis Prima[00:00:00]

Written by：Vic Knight/T.E. Klages/Cole Porter[00:00:01]

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

I met a trumpet playin' character and man alive[00:00:09]

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[00:00:16]

They told me that's[00:00:18]

The lip'[00:00:19]

Yip yip yip yip[00:00:20]

No one plays high notes like the lip[00:00:22]

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

Of a boy named Bix[00:00:28]

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

Can hear him just for kicks[00:00:31]

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 but[00:00:37]

Not enough to hurt me none[00:00:38]

Yip yip yip yip[00:00:40]

No one plays high notes like the lip[00:00:42]

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[00:00:53]

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[00:01:07]

Player play a note so high[00:01:08]

Had to coax a lot before[00:01:11]

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'[00:01:15]

And he rubs a little every[00:01:17]

Night on his mouthpiece[00:01:19]

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:20]

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

Ah Listen here gal[00:01:26]

You kiddin' about all that 'high[00:01:27]

Note grease'[00:01:29]

No man I swear[00:01:30]

He had ten in big valise[00:01:32]

Why you mean he goes to the[00:01:34]

Drugstore and gets them[00:01:36]

From the medecine shelf[00:01:37]

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

Makes it himself[00:01:39]

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:40]

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[00:01:51]

A bushel full of[00:01:52]

Goldfish legs[00:01:53]

And ya hang 'em on a sky hook[00:01:55]

In the midnight sun[00:01:56]

Then you fry them[00:01:59]

Until they're done[00:02:00]

Yip yip yip yip[00:02:01]

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