JAZZ AIN'T DEAD YET
by
Yonah Korngold
It ain't dead yet i'm telling you
just this morning I trailed off on a dirt road
and heard the sound of being alive
the early morning coffee sound
the tremondous orange sky sound
the driving from Chicago to New Orleans at night sound
lost America sound
found America from a hitchhiker sound
Miles Davis on heroin sound
Miles Davis off heroin sound
and then there's the tender sound
growling grawling cliches by the ocean sounds
and then there's my sound
my sound.
