C Jam Blues (1942 Take) - Duke Ellington

Baby!

take me down to Duke’s Place,

Wildest box in town is Duke’s Place

Love that piano sound in Duke’s Place.

Saxes do their tricks in Duke’s Place,

Fellas swing their chicks in Duke’s Place

Come on!

Get your kicks in Duke’s Place!

You find yourself a seat, and when you want to eat,

You look around and yell, «Waiter!»

You fill your cup chock full of dreams and drink it up You’re jetting along with your girlie

It’s after three o’clock, but baby, it’s still early!

If you’ve never been to Duke’s Place,

Take your tootsies into Duke’s Place

Life is in a spin in Duke’s Place
