Текст песни The Ghost of Smokey Joe (Cab Calloway and His Orchestra) с переводом

You didn’t see me climb through the window

Nobody had to open that door

I just climb right through the wall and I want you one and all

To stand aside and let me have the floor

Take a look, I’m not such a stranger

Here’s a face you cokies all ought to know

You can tell me I’m not wanted, but the joint will still be haunted

'Cause I’m the ghost of Smokey Joe

Remember when I kicked the bucket

In my mansion up on Strivers' Row

When they came and took me off in

A zillion dollar coffin

'Cause I’m the ghost of Smokey Joe

Tell me, do you remember Minnie? (Yeah, we remember Minnie)

That frail I never found

You never recognize your Minnie (You never recognize your Minnie)

You mean to say that Minnie

Quit kickin' the gong around?

I got a date on my estate down in Hades

Call my chariot so I can go

And should the moocher walk in

Just tell her you’ve been talkin'

To the ghost of Smokey Joe

Yes, I remember Minnie

She’s that frail I never found

You mean to say that Minnie

Quit kickin' the gong around?

I got a date on my estate down in Hades

Call my chariot so I can go

And should the moocher walk in

Just tell her you’ve been talkin'

To the ghost of Smokey Joe
