[Intro]
(Savoy) yeah, that’s the part of what Harlem was all about
(Savoy) you know, the home, the home of happy feet
(Mmm hmm) the Savoy Ballroom (mmm hmm)
Yeah, my daddy met my mama, my mama met my daddy
Listen to Ella Fitzgerald
But the chick [?] went bare [?], mmm hmm
And that’s part of the reason I’m here today, babies
So I grew up listening to all this cool and hip music
You know, I got to enjoy it when I was like
You know, seven, eight, nine years old
Uh huh, man I’m so glad to be able to
Throw a thunderbolt down your way
Pick it up
[Verse 1]
Savoy, (the home of sweet romance)
Savoy (it wins you with a glance)
Savoy (gives happy feet a chance)
Let’s dance
[Verse 2]
Ooh, your form (it’s likе a clinging vine)
Your lips (warm and sweet as wine)
Honey, your cheek (soft and closе to mine)
Divine
[Bridge]
How my heart is singin’
While the band is swingin’
Never tired of rompin’
And stompin’ with you at the Savoy
[Verse 3]
Savoy (a perfect holiday)
Savoy (where we can glide and sway)
Savoy (we’re gonna stomp away)
Let’s dance
[Bridge]
How my heart is singin’
Listen to the big band swingin’
Never get tired of rompin’
And stompin’ with you at the Savoy
[Verse 4]
[Scat] (savoy)
[Scat] (savoy)
[Scat] (let’s dance)
[Scat] (let’s dance)
[Scat] (let’s dance)
Uh huh (let’s dance)
