[00:00.00]Good Bye Pork Pie Hat - 吉田美奈子 (よしだ みなこ)/渡边香津美 (わたなべ かずみ)
[00:31.89]When charlie speaks of Lester
[00:36.51]You know someone great has gone
[00:40.38]The sweetest swinging music man
[00:44.26]Had a porkier pig hat on
[00:47.98]A bright star
[00:50.33]In a dark age
[00:52.41]When the bandstands had a thousand ways
[00:56.22]Of refusing a black man admission
[01:04.58]Black musician
[01:07.59]In those days they put him in an
[01:10.41]Underdog position
[01:15.98]Cellars and chitterlings
[01:34.66]We came up from the subway
[01:38.40]On the music midnight makes
[01:42.79]To Charlie's bass and Lester's saxophone
[01:46.36]In taxi horns and brakes
[01:49.73]Now Charlie's down in Mexico
[01:54.23]With the healers
[01:56.22]So the sidewalk leads us with music
[02:01.38]To two little dancers
[02:07.26]Dancing outside a black bar
[02:10.20]There's a sign up on the awning
[02:14.74]It says pork pie hat bar
[02:17.72]And there's black babies dancing
[02:25.25]Tonight
[04:32.61]We came up from the subway
[04:36.31]On the music midnight makes
[04:40.30]To Charlie's bass and Lester's saxophone
[04:44.60]In taxi horns and brakes
[04:48.18]Now Charlie's down in Mexico
[04:52.74]With the healers
[04:54.27]So the sidewalk leads us with music
[04:59.07]To two little dancers
[05:05.32]Dancing outside a black bar
[05:09.05]There's a sign up on the awning
[05:11.69]It says pork pie hat bar
[05:16.06]And there's black babies dancing
[05:26.95]Tonight
[05:31.65]Tonight
