some musicians tell me “there’s no work /

out there” least ways not for the music

they play / joe rasul & david are all in

paris / but i can find some black bands

where we live / play in bebop blues & r&b /

sure you gotta look / gotta go where folks

aint so well off/ but you can find some

music that’s as colored as it is live /

folks dance / the bop the Chicago walk & swing /

they revive black big band sounds with a little

old five piece band sound / in texas & louisiana

zydeco music is the rage / some churches

even have zydeco nights / just like bingo

it’s ours and we won’t let it go / gives us

a chance / to make us smile at each other /

hold each other / show what we can do with

all the memories we have of etta james

ellington count basie & the moonglows

maybe even the flamingos / there’s music out there fellas
