《Mr. Paganini》歌词

[00:00:01] Mr. Paganini - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨杰拉德)

[00:00:09] The concert was over in Carnegie Hall

[00:00:13] The maestro took bow after bow

[00:00:16] He said My dear friends I have given my all

[00:00:20] I'm sorry its all over now

[00:00:26] When from the gallery way up high

[00:00:33] There suddenly came this mournful cry

[00:00:43] Mr Paganini please play my rhapsody

[00:00:51] And if you cannot play it won't you sing it

[00:00:59] And if you can't sing it you'll simply have to

[00:01:15] Mr Paganini we breathlessly await

[00:01:21] Your masterful baton go on and sling it

[00:01:29] And if you can't sling it you'll simply have to

[00:01:43] We heard your repertoire and at the final bar

[00:01:50] We greeted you with a round applause

[00:01:58] But what a great ovation your interpretation

[00:02:14] Mr Paganini now don't you be a meanie

[00:02:21] What have you up your sleeve Come on and spring it

[00:02:29] And if you don't spring it that means you'll have to

[00:02:43] Mr Paganini please play my rhapsody

[00:02:48] And if you cannot play it won't you sing it
