《The Lip(Remastered)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Lip - Keely Smith/Louis Prima (路易斯·普利马)

[00:00:06] Down on the Mississippi River

[00:00:08] In a knockdo' dive

[00:00:10] I met a trumpet playin' character

[00:00:12] And Man alive

[00:00:13] When he began to rip

[00:00:14] He really played it from the hip

[00:00:17] And when I asked about his name

[00:00:18] They told me "That's 'The Lip' "

[00:00:20] Yip yip yip yip

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

[00:00:27] He's got a tone

[00:00:28] That's reminiscent of a boy named Bix

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

[00:00:33] Just for kicks

[00:00:33] And when I asked him does he read

[00:00:35] He says "I'll tell you hon

[00:00:37] I read a little bit

[00:00:38] But not enough to hurt me none "

[00:00:40] Yip yip yip yip

[00:00:43] No one plays high notes like The Lip

[00:00:47] I said The Lip

[00:00:50] I said The Lip

[00:00:54] I said The Lip

[00:00:57] I said The Lip

[00:01:01] Yip yip yip yip

[00:01:03] No one plays high notes like The Lip

[00:01:07] I never heard a trumpet player

[00:01:09] Play a note so high

[00:01:11] And I had to coax a lot before

[00:01:12] The Lip would tell me why

[00:01:14] Then he took out a little jar that's labeled

[00:01:16] 'High-note Grease'

[00:01:18] And he rubs a little every night on his mouthpiece

[00:01:21] Yip yip yip yip

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

[00:01:27] Listen here gal

[00:01:28] Are you kiddin' about all that 'high-note grease'

[00:01:31] No man I swear he had ten in his valise

[00:01:35] Wha' you mean he goes to the drugstore

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

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

[00:01:41] Yip yip yip yip

[00:01:44] Tell us the secret of The Lip

[00:01:47] Well you take a buketful of steam

[00:01:49] And a dozen rooster eggs

[00:01:52] And you mix 'em up gently with a bushel

[00:01:53] Full of goldfish legs

[00:01:55] And ya hang 'em on a sky hook in the midnight sun

[00:01:59] Mmm and then you fry them until they're done

[00:02:01] Yip yip yip yip

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