Hop on the streetcar, baby,
we'll make the trolley klang.
Take a trip on the elevated:
thanks for the boogie-ride, Gene.

Let's get a cab outta Brooklyn,
a ferry to the Jersey Side,
hear the calley-ope on Coney Island,
thanks for the boogie-ride, Gene.

Jazz me you syncopator,
go for the voe-dee-oh-doh,
swingtime in Darktown at night-time,
thanks for the boogie-ride, Gene.

Maybe it will be Chris. Just for the sake of it check this out. (be patient it doesn't kick in until a tird the way through - but it won't disappoint I'm sure) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mVpGmoES3w

Heee hee. Now let's have a poem to go with it. As for 'tird' - that's either a typo or a bad fake accent. Take your pick.

Ah, Anita O'Day - what a voice. Thanks for the link to a great piece of music.
