Create hard bop/soul-jazz male vocal lyrics: BPM 115, D major, warm swinging rhythm. Core instrumentation: soul-jazz Hammond B3 organ replacing piano, plucky upright bass, swing ride cymbal drum kit, cup-muted trumpet bursts, breathy tenor sax, subtle vibraphone accents. The narrative follows a sharp-suited late 50s uptown club regular who just won a long-shot horse bet, recounting playful banter with the bartender, winking at a regular patron across the room, and giddy plans to splurge on his favorite cherry pie and a weekend road trip upstate. Tone is cheeky, laid-back yet brimming with quiet joy, laced with bluesy grit, small conversational asides, and a 8-bar scat breakdown fit for Gregory Porter’s rich baritone delivery.
歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Slide me another glass Tonight we move first class That ticket in my vest Just put my luck to test Hey Joe, pour the good gin I finally got a win [Pre-Chorus] She sits across the room Under the neon bloom I catch her eye and wink I buy her favorite drink [Chorus] I got a pocket full of green Best day I have ever seen We’ll eat some cherry pie And watch the clouds roll by We’ll take a weekend drive It’s good to be alive [Verse] The B3 starts to moan In a sweet and golden tone That horse was ten to one But now the race is done My suit is pressed and neat I walk a lighter street [Chorus] I got a pocket full of green Best day I have ever seen We’ll eat some cherry pie And watch the clouds roll by We’ll take a weekend drive It’s good to be alive [Breakdown] Ba da dee ba da dum Swing along to the drum Shoo be do ooh wee Happy as I can be Zaz zu zaz zu zay We are on our way Ba da da da da doo Under the sky of blue [Bridge] Pack up the heavy leather bag Wave to the city flag The highway is calling out plain We will forget all the rain [Chorus] I got a pocket full of green Best day I have ever seen We’ll eat some cherry pie And watch the clouds roll by We’ll take a weekend drive It’s good to be alive [Outro]
