[00:47.53]You know someone great has gone
[00:51.78]The sweetest swinging music man
[00:56.61]Had a Porkie Pig hat on
[01:00.46]A bright star
[01:03.12]In a dark age
[01:04.77]When the bandstands had a thousand ways
[01:09.19]Of refusing a black man admission
[01:18.05]Black musician
[01:21.86]In those days they put him in an
[01:25.65]Underdog position
[01:33.32]Cellars and chittlins'
[01:36.39]When Lester took him a wife
[01:42.18]Arm and arm went black and white
[01:45.89]And some saw red
[01:49.08]And drove them from their hotel bed
[01:55.88]Love is never easy
[02:00.32]It's short of the hope we have for happiness
[02:07.52]Bright and sweet
[02:09.37]Love is never easy street
[02:13.93]Now we are black and white
[02:16.61]Embracing out in the lunatic New York night
[02:20.59]It's very unlikely we'll be driven out of town
[02:25.03]Or be hung in a tree
[02:29.65]That's unlikely
[02:32.60]Tonight these crowds
[02:39.73]Are happy and loud
[02:48.21]Children are up dancing in the streets
[02:52.91]In the sticky middle of the night
[02:54.91]Summer serenade
[02:56.53]Of taxi horns and fun arcades
[03:00.22]Where right or wrong
[03:02.56]Under neon
[03:04.17]Every feeling goes on
[03:07.35]For you and me
[03:10.12]The sidewalk is a history book
[03:13.52]And a circus
[03:14.95]Dangerous clowns
[03:17.47]Balancing dreadful and wonderful perceptions
[03:21.33]They have been handed
[03:22.81]Day by day
[03:24.15]Generations on down
[04:22.55]We came up from the subway
[04:26.50]On the music midnight makes
[04:31.59]To Charlie's bass and Lester's saxophone
[04:36.26]In taxi horns and brakes
[04:40.73]Now Charlie's down in Mexico
[04:45.37]With the healers
[04:47.60]So the sidewalk leads us with music
[04:51.59]To two little dancers
[04:57.92]Dancing outside a black bar
[05:03.25]There's a sign up on the awning
[05:07.43]It says "Pork pie hat bar"
[05:14.36]And there's black babies dancing
[05:19.01]Tonight
