Текст песни Miss You Mr. Mercer - Mark Murphy

Miss you, Mr. Mercer
Standin' 'round a grand piano
Hand 'round a dandy cold one
Sing a new one or an old one
While Harold or Hoagy or Harry or Henry or Andre play

Miss you, Mr. Mercer
Savannah's boy soprano
Took your dreams to New York City
Wrote them powerful and pretty
Then fare thee well to Harlem and Hollywood
Made him say, "Hooray, hooray for Hollywood"
You must be in a beautiful place now
No more blues in the night

I still can see that pixie freckled face now
And that old southern smile
Much wider than a mile

Miss you, Mr. Mercer

Had me laughin', had me cryin'
Every verse was built for travel
From that throat all full of gravel
For folks far and near
Anyone with an ear to a radio
Wherever you are
You'll hear a baby grand

You and a piano
Make a twenty-piece band
I can hear that whistle 'round the bend
I miss you, Mr. Mercer

My huckleberry friend

Miss you, Mr. Mercer
Standin' 'round a grand piano
Hand 'round a dandy cold one
Sing a new one or an old one

While Harold or Hoagy or Harry or Henry or old Andre play
Play it, boys
Miss you, Mr. Mercer
Savannah's boy soprano
Took your dreams to New York City
Wrote them powerful and pretty
Then fare thee well to Harlem and Hollywood
Made him say, "Hooray, hooray for Hollywood"

Yeah, you must be in a beautiful place now
No more blues in the night
I still can see that pixie freckled face now
And that old southern smile
Much wider than a mile

Miss you, Mr. Mercer

Had me laughin', had me cryin'
Every verse was built for travel
From that throat all full of gravel
For folks far and near
Anyone with an ear to a radio
Wherever you are
You'll hear a baby grand

You and a piano
Make a twenty-piece band
I can hear that whistle 'round the bend
I miss you, Mr. Mercer

My huckleberry friend

Now the angels sing
