52nd St. Theme Songtext
von Charlie Parker

And once again, ladies and gentlemen, we take you back to the Royal Roost
Metropolitan Opera House where you sit back and relax every night, every morning
And listen to a lot of the wonderful and modern jazz
That I hope you really enjoy

And as our surprise for this morning here on the all night, all Friday fun
With our microphones down here at Royal Roost
We bring to you once again, the wonderful and outstanding
Charlie Parker and his wonderful organisation


That′s right, for the weekend, ladies and gentlemen
We're bringing you the great Charlie Parker and his wonderful organisation
Featuring Miles Davis on trumpet, Max Roach on drums
Tadd Dameron on piano and Curley Russell on bass
I know that you′ll have a lot of fun over the weekend
Come on down and take the great Charlie Parker
The one and only, the man of jazz

And to start things jumping off let's hear
The original done by, or written by, Thelonious Monk
Out of the RCA Victor album
Here's "52nd Street Theme"
