[00:00:00] You Gotta Pay The Band - Abbey Lincoln

[00:00:03] Written by：Abbey Lincoln

[00:00:49] Oh it really isn't easy

[00:00:53] Just to let the good times roll

[00:00:56] Everything is measured at a cost

[00:01:03] Everybody living

[00:01:07] Pays their share of dues

[00:01:10] And sometimes what you think you got

[00:01:13] You lost

[00:01:16] So ring a ding ding

[00:01:21] Do your thing

[00:01:24] But remember

[00:01:28] Darling

[00:01:31] When you give a dance

[00:01:34] You gotta pay the band

[00:01:38] The band that played your song

[00:01:40] The whole night through

[00:01:45] When you give a dance

[00:01:48] It's better if you try

[00:01:51] To pay the piper what the piper's due

[00:01:58] The moves were free and easy

[00:02:01] As we danced across the floor

[00:02:05] The spins and the exchanges

[00:02:08] Being what the music's for

[00:02:11] But when the party's over

[00:02:15] And the revelry is done

[00:02:19] You gotta pay the band

[00:02:21] That played your song

[00:03:21] When you give a dance

[00:03:24] You gotta pay the band

[00:03:28] The band that played your song

[00:03:30] The whole night through

[00:03:34] When you give a dance

[00:03:37] It's better if you try

[00:03:41] To pay the piper what the piper's due

[00:03:47] The music pop the magic

[00:03:51] And he found each other chance

[00:03:54] We dance to the morning

[00:03:57] And he new his other chance

[00:04:01] When the party's over

[00:04:04] And people all of gone

[00:04:08] You gotta pay the band

[00:04:11] Played your song

[00:04:14] You gotta pay the band

[00:04:17] That played your song

[00:04:20] Well you gotta

[00:04:25] Pay the band

[00:04:28] That played your song
