Lyrics
Just dig that scenery floatin' by
We're now approachin' Newport, Rhode Island
We've been for years in variety
With Charlie Knickerbocker now we're goin' to be
In high, high, so high socie-, high society
Yes, I wanna play for my former pal
He runs the local jazz festival
His name is Dexter and he's good news
But somethin' kinda tells me that boy's nursin' the blues
In high, high, so high socie-, high society
High society
High, high, so high socie-, high society
He's got the blues 'cause his former wife
Begins tomorrow a brand new life
She started lately a new affair
And now the silly chick is gonna marry a square
(High, high, so high socie-, high society)
Square detail
Well, high, high, so high socie-, high society
But brother Dexter, just trust your 'Satch
Stop that weddin' and kill that match
And toot my trumpet to start the fun
And play in such a way that she'll come back to you, son
In high, high, so high socie-, high society
High, high, so high socie-
In high
Socie-
A tie
Can you dig ol' Satchmo swingin' in the beautiful high society?
