paroles de chanson Checkered Hat - Alice Babs

I remember a quick warm smile
And that dry kind of wit he had down path
A cool lie to the world

In his checkered hat

I remember a poet's soul
Singing out where the real beauty was at
Detached, yet so aware

Underneath that checkered hat

What he felt inside
Everyone who heard him knew
For with each line and phrase he opened his heart
Opened it up wide to all those around

Weaving an easy, clinging, mellow, swinging velvet sound

What a beautiful man he was
You don't find anyone finer than that
A real one of a kind
In a jaunty checkered hat

What he felt inside
Everyone who heard him knew
For with each line and phrase he opened his heart
Opened it up wide to all those around

Weaving an easy, clinging, mellow, swinging velvet sound

What a beautiful man he was
You don't find anyone finer than that
A real one of a kind
In a jaunty checkered hat
