Once again the smile was back,
Four guys sat there on the stage,
Four guys of “a certain age”.
The clarinet sounded,
The piano, banjo and drums came in
And that smile was on my face.
We were in for a wonderful evening,
A wonderful evening of Jazz.
The sounds of Jelly Roll permeated my world
And the world of those around me.
Such wonderful sounds
From four men who loved their Jazz.
You could see it in their faces,
Feel their souls coming through,
Coming through their sounds.
A so wonderful evening,
One that will be in my mind
And in my heart forever.
