Black Rhythm (06-11-31) - Cab Calloway (凱伯·凱洛威)

Down in Louisiana

 

There's a grand piano playing man

 

He knows that they can't kid him

'Cause he's got hot rhythm in his hand

 

The blues that he'll compose will thrill you

From your head to your toes

 

He called his song black rhythm

'Cause his black hands did it 'neath the moon

 

The keys he plays on sweetly

 

And you're left completely in a swoon

 

The melancholy strum

Mixed with the rum-tum of melodious blues

 

When he plays the blue note

And adds a new note

You'll think that he wrote a symphony

 

But he's just improvising

 

On a southern mammy melody

 

You'll quit your pouting

And start a-shouting

No need in doubting he knows the keys

 

He can lay on the white ones

Can play on the black ones with ease

 

The way he plays black rhythm

Makes the gang stick with him all night long

 

Forget the hour is late

 

They hear him syncopate his mournful song

 

A-humming like the breeze

 

 

A-strumming lightly on those ivories
