Is this word association? Title mentioned is a Duke Ellington insturmental that sounds like it may have gospel origins.

Sorry -- I now see that this is a lyric request. Ellington's version was an instrumental. I would also be interested in these lyrics. The use of 'dem' suggests there may be a little minstrelsy in this tune, in addition to the gospel flavor mentioned above. ------------------------------------
