Steely Dan - Parker's Band lyrics

rate me

Savoy sides presents a new saxophone sensation

It's Parker's band with a smooth style of syncopation

Kansas City born and growing

You won't believe what the boys are blowing

You got to come on man

And take a piece of Mister Parker's band

You'll be riding by, bareback on your armadillo

You'll be grooving high or relaxing at Camarillo

Suddenly the music hits you

It's a bird in flight that just can't quit you

You got to come on man

And take a piece of Mister Parker's band

We will spend a dizzy weekend smacked into a trance

Me and you will listen to

A little bit of what made the preacher dance

Bring your horn along and you can add to the pure confection

And if you can't fly you'll have to move in with the rhythm section

Either way you're bound to function

Fifty-Second Street's the junction

You got to come on man

And take a piece of Mister Parker's

Clap your hands and take a piece of Mister Parker's

Come on man and take a piece of Mister Parker's band
