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

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

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[00:00:16]

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 that's reminiscent of a boy named Bix[00:00:26]

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

Just for kicks [00:00:32]

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 not enough to hurt me none "[00:00:36]

Yip yip yip yip [00:00:40]

No one plays high notes like The Lip [00:00:42]

I said The Lip [00:00:46]

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]

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[00:01:13]

That's labeled 'High-note Grease'[00:01:15]

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

Yip yip yip yip[00:01:20]

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

Listen here gal are you kiddin' about all[00:01:26]

That 'high-note grease' [00:01:28]

No man I swear he had ten in his be valise [00:01:30]

Wha' you mean he goes to the drugstore[00:01:34]

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

No some cat's told me he makes it himself [00:01:37]

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[00:01:48]

And you mix 'em up gently[00:01:50]

With a bushel full of goldfish legs[00:01:51]

And ya hang 'em on a sky[00:01:54]

Hook in the midnight sun[00:01:55]

Mmm and then you fry[00:01:58]

Them until they're done [00:01:59]

Yip yip yip yip[00:02:00]

That's the secret of The Lip[00:02:03]
