High Society Calypso by Louis Armstrong


(Cole Porter)

Louis Armstrong - 1956[Armstrong]

Just dig that scenery floating by

We're now approaching Newport Rhode I.

We've been for years In Variety

But Cholly Knickerbocker now we're going to be

 

[All]

In High High So-

High So-ci-

High So-ci-ety.

 

[Armstrong]

I wanna play for my former pal-

He runs the local jazz festival.

His name is Dexter and he's good news

But sumping kind of tells me that he's nursing the blues

 

[All]

In High High So-

High So-ci-

High So-ci-ety.

[Armstrong]

He's got the blues 'cause his wife alas

Thought writing songs was beneath his class

But writing songs he'd not stop of course

And so she flew to Vegas for a quickie divorce

 

[All]

In High High So-

High So-ci-

High So-ci-ety.

 

[Armstrong]

To make him sadder his former wife

Begins tomorrow a brand-new life.

She started lately a new affair

And now the silly chick is gonna marry a square

 

[All]

In High So-

High So-ci-

High So-ci-ety.

 

[Armstrong]

But Brother Dexter just trust your Satch

To stop that wedding and kill that match.

I'll toot my trumpet to start the fun

And play in such a way that she'll come back to you son

 

[All]

In High High So-

High So-ci-

High So-ci-ety.
