Buzzard Song - Chuck Berry, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong

Boss, dat bird mean trouble

Once de buzzard fold his wing an' light over yo' house

All yo' happiness done dead

Buzzard keep on flyin' over, take along yo' shadow

Ain' nobody dead dis mornin'

Livin’s jus' begun

Two is strong where one is feeble;

Man an' woman livin', workin'

Sharin' grief an' sharin' laughter

An' love like Augus' sun

Trouble, is dat you over yonder

Lookin' lean an' hungry?

Don' you let dat buzzard keep you

Hangin' round my do'

Ain' you heard de news this mornin'?

Step out, brudder, hit de gravel;

Porgy who you used to feed on

Don' live here no mo'

Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Buzzard, on yo' way!

Ole age, what is you anyhow

Nuttin' but bein' lonely

Pack yo' things an' fly from here

Carry grief an' pain

Dere’s two folks livin' in dis shelter

Eatin', sleepin', singin', prayin'

Ain' no such thing as loneliness

An' Porgy’s young again

Buzzard, keep on flyin'

Porgy’s young again
