Hey, Buddy Bolden Lyrics - Nina Simone Sings Ellington! - Nina Simone

(1956) billy strayhorn, duke ellington 

Buddy bolden tune up 

Blowing horn was his game 

Born with a silver trumpet in his mouth 

He played the horn before he talked 

Born on the after beat 

He patted his foot before walked 

When buddy bolden tuned up you could hear him clean 

Clean across the river clean across the river 

He woke up the working people and kept the easy living 

Call on buddy bolden call him buddy bolden

Come on buddy bolden here they come
