In Walked Bud by Thelonious Monk Lyrics

Genre: rb | Year: 1951

Dizzie, he was screaming
Next to O.P. who was beaming
Monk was thumping
Suddenly in walked Bud
And then they got into somethin'

Oscar played a mean sax
(Mr. Max Roach beat a mean axe)
Mr Byas blew a mean axe
Monk was thumping
Suddenly in walked Bud
And then the joint started jumping

Every hip stud really dug Bud
Soon's he hit town
Takin' that note nobody wrote
Putting it down

O. P. he was screaming
Next to Dizzy who was beaming
Monk was thumping
Suddenly in walked Bud
And then they got into somethin'
Dizzie, he was screaming
Next to O.P. who was beaming
Monk was thumping
Suddenly in walked Bud
And then they got into somethin'

Oscar played a mean sax
(Mr. Max Roach beat a mean axe)
Mr Byas blew a mean axe
Monk was thumping
Suddenly in walked Bud
And then the joint started jumping
