Double Bass STUMP PULL WARMBATON

Paul Warburton said:
Sorry about the missing lines...I just can't understand the words right there. Anybody??

When an early autumn walks the land and chills the breeze
And touches with her hand the summer trees,
Perhaps you'll understand what memories i own.
There's a dance pavilion in the rain all shuttered down,
A winding country lane all russet brown,
A frosty window pane shows me a town grown lonely.
That spring of ours that started so april-hearted,
Seemed made for just a boy and girl.
I never dreamed, did you, any fall would come in view
So early, early.
Darling if you care, please, let me know,
I'll meet you anywhere, i miss you so.
Let's never have to share another early autumn.

Accordong to my contacts in Denver fall is already in the air so I thought, "why not?"
Yes it "TIS"
I had some help on some parts of this, but I had most of it and it doesn't include Bob's BE-BOP Bird calls....just LADELA's

Old father time checked so there'd be no doubt,
called the North wind to come on out
Then cupped his hands so there'd be no doubt
la de la de la de da, 'tis Autunm. (or scooby doo's)
The trees say they're tired, they borne too much fruit,
Charmed all the wayside, there's no dispute.
Now shedding leaves, they don't give a hoot.la de ETC.
Bridge
(Double time...at least in Bob's arrangement) Then the birds got together to talk about the weather (BE BOP SCAT ****)
After making thier decision with birdie like precision
Turned around and made a bee-line for the south.
My holding you really is no crime,ask the birds and the trees and old father time.
It's just to make the mercury climb...Scooby do, sqaudly bobedo, Tis Autumn.....or somethin' like that! :hyper:

Not ringing any bells, diddy...any more subtle hints?

Hrmm... the quote above is from the bridge. Maybe a little more obscure so you might not call it a standard but seems like plenty of people have covered it. It's written by Bobby Timmons/Oscar Brown Jr.. Does that help?

"Dis Here"? It's not Moanin' I think I know those. "Dat Dere"?
As cool as those tunes are, I really don't consider them standards.....Moanin is certainly a "Jazz Standard" but I wouldn't consider it part of the American Standard tune vocabulary.
Did Bobby write "Blues March" For Art Blakey's band....I'm not even sure if Bobby wrote that, and I certainly don't know the lyrics.
