Songtexte Doin' the Uptown Lowdown (with the Dorsey Brothers Orchestra) - Mildred Bailey

Where do we get that music that puts that swing so hot in us?
Where is life, never dull, hum-drum or monotonous?
Hop a subway, hop a cab,
Shoot right up to Harlem
Where the population
Found a new sensation.

Screen celebs and stage satellites,
Social debs and High hat-ellites,
Masses, classes, Doin' the Uptown Lowdown.
Where they spend their semolians
Just to watch those Creolians
Skippin', hippin', Doin' the Uptown Lowdown.

You'll find laughter afer midnight,
That's their play-time.
Hi-de-hay time!
What price, Yeah, man!

Bankers with their Cinderellatives,
List'ning to those hot hi-yellatives,
Up in Harlem, Doin' the Uptown Lowdown!

(Orchestra)

Screen celebs and state sattelites,
Social debs and high-hatelites,
Masses, classes,
Doin' the uptown lowdown.
Where they spend their semolians,
Just to watch those Creolians,
Skippin', hippin',
Doin' the uptown lowdown.
You'll find laugher after midnight,
That's their play time,
Hi-de-hay time,
What price, yeah, man!
Bankers with their Cinderellatives,
List'ning to those hot hi-yellatives,
Up in, Harlem,
Doin' the uptown lowdown.
