When Malindy Sings - Abbey Lincoln (艾比·林肯)

Written by：Paul Laurence Dunbar/Oscar Brown

G'way an' quit dat noise miss lucy put dat music book away

What's de use to keep on tryin'

If you practise twell you're gray you cain't sta't no notes aflyin'

Lak de ones dat rants and rings f'om de kitchen to de big woods

When malindy sings

Easy 'nough fu' folks to hollah lookin' at de lines an' dots

When dey ain't no one kin sence it an' de chune comes in in spots

But fu' real malojous music dat jes' strikes yo' hea't and clings

Jes' you stan' an' listen wif me when malindy sings

Oh hit's sweetah dan de music of an edicated band

An' hit's dearah dan de battle's song o' triumph in de lan'

It seems holier dan evenin' when de solemn chu'ch bell rings

Ez I sit an' ca'mly listen while malindy sings

Towsah stop dat ba'kin' hyeah me

Mandy mek dat chile keep still don't you hyeah de echoes callin'

F'om de valley to de hill

Let me listen I can hyeah it th'oo de bresh of angel's wings

Sof' an' sweet

Swing low sweet chariot when malindy sings
