Dinah Lyrics by Duke Ellington

Daybreak Express

0

[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
Dinah
Is there anyone finer
In the state of China
If there is and you know her, show her to me
Dinah
With your Dixie eyes blazing
How I long to sit and gaze in-
To the eyes of Dinah Lee
[Bridge]
'Cause every night, why must with I shake with pride?
It's because my Dinah might change her mind about me
[Verse 2]
Oh, if you find Dinah
Ever wanders to China
I would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee
[Scatting]
[Instrumental]
