Prompt / Lyrics
[vocal improvisation recommended] [1960’s crooner sexy duet vocals] Oh, we’re glidin’ in the city lights Feet tappin’, swingin’ through the night Barefoot on the avenue tonight Brass is blarin’, everything feels right [Verse 1] Well, I was strollin’ down the avenue Not a soul in sight, just thinkin’ of you [mmm!] Then you twirled in, hat tipped just right Made me laugh and forget the night With a sparkle in your eye, and a tap of your heel You got me swingin’ faster than a spinning wheel No foolin’ now, I’m all in tonight So step close, sugar, don’t be shy We’ll dance past the moon up in the sky Your laugh’s a melody I can’t ignore Baby, we’ll swing till they beg for more [Chorus] Oh, we’re glidin’ in the city lights Feet tappin’, swingin’ through the night Barefoot on the avenue tonight Brass is blarin’, everything feels right When you grin, I’m floatin’ high Darlin’, you got that magic tonight Yeah, I’m swingin’, swingin’ all the way Life’s a song, and we’re here to play [Verse 2] Rain could pour and the winds could blow But with you, honey, I’m ready to go We’ll twist and turn down every street Kickin’ up dust with tap-tap feet I’d chase the sun, or the stars above Do a thousand laughs, if it’s you I love With you, sugar, it’s all pure delight So drop your doubts, honey, throw ‘em away I’ll catch ‘em and make a bouquet From the first time you winked at me I knew this love was meant to be [Chorus] Oh, we’re glidin’ in the city lights Feet tappin’, swingin’ through the night Barefoot on the avenue tonight Trumpets blowin’, everything feels right When you laugh, I’m on cloud nine Darlin’, you got that magic tonight Yeah, I’m swingin’, swingin’ all the way Life’s a gamble, and we’ll play [Bridge ] Life’s a twist, a turn, a crazy spin But with you, honey, I always win We’ll toast the nights, we’ll chase the day Laugh at the troubles in our own way We’re still young, still bold, still free Got a love like a jubilee So come on, darling, take my hand We’ll swing and sway across this land [Final Chorus / Outro] Yeah, we’re glidin’ in the city lights Feet tappin’, swingin’ through the night Barefoot on the avenue tonight The band’s swingin’ loud, everything’s right Darlin’, you got that magic tonight And I’m swingin’, swingin’ all the way Oh, sugar, you got that magic tonight Life’s a song, so let’s playyyy! Life’s a song, so let’s playyyy Life’s a song, so let’s playyyyyyyyyy
