You'll Have To Swing It Lyrics - Ella Fitzgerald

The concert was over in Carnegie Hall 

The maestro took bow after bow 

He said, "My dear friends I have given my all 

I? m sorry, it? s all over now" 

When from the gallery way up high 

There suddenly came this mournful cry 

"Mr. Paganini, please play my rhapsody 

And if you cannot play it, won? t you sing it? 

And if you can? t sing it, you'll simply have to [Incomprehensible]" 

"Mr. Paganini, we breathlessly await 

Your masterful baton, go on and sling it 

And if you can? t sling it, you'll simply have to [Incomprehensible]" 

We heard your repertoire and at the final bar 

We greeted you with a round applause 

But what a great ovation, your interpretation [Incomprehensible]"

"Mr. Paganini, now don? t you be a meanie 

What have you up your sleeve? Come on and spring it 

And if you don? t spring it, that means you'll have to [Incomprehensible]" 

"Mr. Paganini, please play my rhapsody 

And if you cannot play it, won't you sing it? 

And if the boys is bopping ain't no need in stopping [Incomprehensible]" 

"Mr. Paganini, we breathlessly await 

Your masterful baton, go on and sling it 

If the boys are bopping ain't no need in stopping" 

A Tisket a tasket 

I lost my yellow basket [Incomprehensible] 

We heard your repertoire and at the final bar 

We greeted you with a round applause 

But what a great ovation, your interpretation [Incomprehensible] 

"Listen Paganini, now don? t you be a meanie 

What have you up your sleeve? Come on and spring it 

And if you don? t spring it, that means you have to" 

We've heard your repertoire and at the final bar 

We greeted you, we greeted you with wild applause 

But what a great ovation, your interpretation [Incomprehensible] 

"Mr. Paganini, now don? t you be a meanie 

What have you up your sleeve? Come on and spring it 

And if you don? t spring it, that means you have to swing it"
