Continued:

At this point, on the original instrumental recording from 1955,
Sam "The Man" Taylor
plays a tenor saxophone solo
while the band runs through the chorus-music.

Here's the first time through the chorus, with
the first part of the tenor sax solo.

CLOUDBURST: first big solo
Jon Hendricks, words.

Hey, ba-by!
I'm gonna tell you 'bout your lovin' and your kissin'
And your huggin' and your sweet turtle-dovin'
Pretty baby, I won't be satisfied
'Til I hear 'em play: HERE COMES THE BRIDE!
Listen to me baby, and I don't mean maybe,
Listen to my story, it's terrifically true!
I wanna find a way to tell you that I really go for you --
I hope you really believe me, baby, 'cause I certainly do!

'Cause you're thrillin' me, you're really, really thrillin'
When you tell me that you prob'ly got a kind of crush on me,
That moves me, grooves me,
How divine can one man be?!
Oh! little darlin', I'm really fallin',
You got me goofy and gay,
I'm bound to get carried away!
Just think, you're gonna be mine someday!
