Birdland (鸟园) (完整版) - 黄小琥
Lyrics by：Josef Zawinul
Composed by：Josef Zawinul
5000 light years from Birdland
But I'm still preachin' the rythym
Long gone uptight years from Birdland
And I'm still teachin' it with 'em
Years from the land of the Bird
And I am still feelin' the spirit
5000 light years from Birdland
But I know people can hear it
Bird named it Bird made it
Bird heard it then played it
Well stated Birdland
It happened down in Birdland
In the middle of that hub
I remember one jazz club
Where we went to pat feet
Down on 52nd Street
Everybody heard that word
That they named it after Bird
Where the rythym swooped and swirled
The jazz corner of the world
And the cats they gigged in there
Were beyond compare
Birdland I'm singing Birdland
Birdland old swingin' Birdland
Down them stairs lose them cares
Where down in Birdland
Total swing bop was king there
Down in Birdland
Bird would cook Max would look
Where down in Birdland
Miles came through trane came too there
Down in Birdland
Basie blew Blakie too
Where down in Birdland
Cannonball played that hall there
Down in Birdland yeah
How well those cats remember their first Birdland gig
To play in Birdland is an honor we still dig
Yeah that club was like in another world
Sure enough yeah baby
All those cats were cookin' on
People just sat and they were steady lookin' on
Then Bird he came and spread the word
Birdland
Yes indeed he did Yard bird Parker played in Birdland
Yes indeed he really did Charlie Parker played in Birdland
Bird named it Bird made it
Bird heard it then played it
Well stated Birdland
It happened down in Birdland
Everybody dug that beat
Everybody stomped their feet
Everybody digs be bop
And they'll never stop
Down them stairs lose them cares
Yeah down in Birdland
Total swing bop was king
Yeah down in Birdland
Bird would cook Max would look
Yeah down in Birdland
Miles came through trane came too
Yeah down in Birdland
Basie blew Blakie too
Yeah down in Birdland
Cannonball played that hall
Yeah down in Birdland
Down them stairs lose them cares
Yeah down in Birdland
