Track #2 on Sarah Vaughan with Clifford Brown (1954).
This song was composed by Kurt Weill with lyrics by Maxwell Anderson, and was first performed by Walter Huston in the 1938 Broadway musical production Knickerbocker Holiday.
Oh, its a long, long while
From May to December
But the days grow short
When you reach September
When the autumn weather
Turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time
For the waiting game
Oh the days dwindle down
To a precious few
September
November
And these few precious days
I'll spend with you
These golden days
I'll spend with you
September Song was written by Maxwell Anderson & Kurt Weill.
September Song was produced by Bob Shad.
