Ebony Rhapsody

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
There's music down in Martinique isle
It's got any men you had beat a mile
A low down quality
They call it ebony rhapsody
Instead of playing music like you do
They supply a little practical voodoo
They keep swingin' while they're singin'
Ebony rhapsody

[Bridge]
It's got those licks, it's got those tricks
That Mister Litz would never recognize
It's got that beat, that tropic heat
You shake until you make the old thermometer rise

[Verse 2]
Oh Lordy, yes, they wear bandannas
Go to market singing tired Hosannas
Swaying to that ebony rhapsody

[Instrumental]
