High Society Calypso

Just dig that scenery floating by We're now approaching Newport, Rhode I We've been, for years, in Variety But Cholly Knickerbocker, now we're going to be In high, high so High soci High society I wanna play for my former pal He runs the local jazz festival His name is Dexter and he's good news But something kind of tells me that he's nursing the blues In high, high so High soci High society He's got the blues 'cause his wife, alas Thought writing songs was beneath his cla*s But writing songs he'd not stop, of course And so she flew to Vegas for a quickie divorce In high, high so High soci High society To make him sadder, his former wife Begins tomorrow a brand new life She started lately a new affair And now the silly chick is gonna marry a square In high so High soci High society But, Brother Dexter, just trust your Satch To stop that wedding and kill that match I'll toot my trumpet to start the fun And play in such a way that she'll come back to you, son In high, high so High soci High society
