Jeru Lyrics - Chet Baker

Why don't you come over 'bout a quarter to nine 

Bring all of your fam'ly and I will bring mine 

If I should bring my brothers, and you bring the others 

Then I can sing a song like Jeru, just for you 

Just for all the lovely people that you see in the road 

We'll sing them a song in Jeruvian mode 

If I can have a pref'rence, I'll even make ref'rence 

To why you write a song like Jeru, just for you 

Then if you'd be kind enough to tell me why you 

write these extended bridges 

can it be romance that always 

haunts me in my reverie? 

So why not come on over 'bout a quarter to eight 

If you can come early I'll never be late 

And now you're all invited, I hope you're delighted 

To sing a little song like Jeru, just for you 

just for me too

Gather around, tale to be told 

Maybe it's new, maybe it's old, listen my friend 

Blowin' away, doin' alright 

Plain' all day, workin' all night, listen again 

Movin' along, coverin' ground 

Singin' the song, lovin' the sound, listen and then 

blow together birds of a feather 

Out playin' the blues and "I Got Rhythm" 

All at once a moment came without a warning 

Got so hot we had to cool it 

Go for glory, tell you the story 

Out payin' our dues until we found we were 

assisting at an unexpected borning 

'twas the birth of the Cool 

So now I can tell you why I'm always 

Trying to tell you, listen, come with me, 

New York, and we're together in my reverie

So why don't you come over 'bout a quarter to two 

Forget all the others, just me and just you 

And while we're versifying 

We'd better start trying 

To write another song just for me 

Just for you, one more Jeru
