The Manhattan Transfer

The Manhattan Transfer - Four Brothers songtekst

Je score:

                     

 Take a seat and cool it 'cause unless you overrule it

We are ready to show you some blowin'

A rompin' and a stompin' is a lot of fun

Four brothers who are blowin' our horns



So settle down an' listen 'cause you don't know what you're missin'

And we're ready to give you a showin'

A movin' it 'n groovin' it has just begun

Four brothers who are blowin' our horns



We got a little message that you're gonna enjoy

Ain't no sense in dodgin' the facts

So settle in your easy chair an' if you ever had a care - forget it

It's time to relax



We might as well admit itwe're the best that ever did it

But in case you ain't too sure a knowin'

We're gonna let you listen to us one by one

Four brothers who are blowin' our horns



Janis:

How'd ya doI'm talkin' about you

It's very nice to know that you have really taken time to listen to me blow

'cause as sure as I'm bornI'm blowin' my horn

It's me babyI'm blowin'zootin' it up

And I hope you dig the sounds I'm makin' more'n any other

Now I must go for it's time for you to listen to my other brother



Tim:

I think the chick's talkin' 'bout me so I'd better go 'n see

I'm hip that she knows a horn is very best to greet you

That's the reason I'm blowin' so snappily

I don't know what ya gotbut it thrills me an' I hope to have a lot

'cause it puts me in clover

So babyif you would like to dig my other brother

You're gonna have to turn the record over



Alan:

Hey hey hey

Who ya talkin' aboutsay who ya talkin' about

Did I hear you say you'd introduce your other brother

'cause in case I heard you talkin' about threethat's me

Pleased to meet youhow'd you dohow are younothing new

How is everything with you? 

Whattya say I leave this jazz up to my brother --



Cheryl:

Dig dig dig my long island sound

I hope you're puttin' it down

You got me in a mood that's so romantic

If you notice you can dig this silly old act

Because I'm actin' so distracted when I dig you

Pretty baby you will never know how much I really dig you

You have got me so excited that I goofed blowin' my horn



All:

Ooh bop the news is gettin' aroundwe're really puttin' it down

We're glad of fact that you enjoy it and we wish we had the time to give you more

Thank you for the compliment

You told us we were better just as if we didn't know it

We're hip that we're the bestwe're over all the rest

We're in the modern schoolwe always play it coolwe never play the fool

The honkers and the squeakers might be stealin' the show

But we don't go for thatso while we blow



Band member:

Hi-holackadaisefor it's a natural fact

I ain't no kinbut I would like to get in the act!



All:

Well get outta hereget outta hereget outta here

Now fellas we appreciate him makin you mad

But we must ask you to apologize

Because after all he's in our band



Four brothersfour brothersfour brothers

Although we sound like more

Four brothersfour brothersfour brothers

We're really only four



We like to blow but we don't know how time can fly and how our cares pass away

We wish the time would never go so we could take our time an' blow 'til judgement day



Four brothersfour brothersfour brothers

Now just one final word:



Janis: I'd like to know you and I hope I don't forget you

Tim: it's really a pleasure and I hope I don't look silly to you

Alan: I'm hopin' the story that I told did not upset you

Cheryl: sorry now in conclusion were you hoping that you heard four



All:

So just before we go we want you to know ---

We're glad you let us show you how we always end up with that jazz

(we don't call for back up on the road)

Oh - ohhh!!!!
