Austin Clark piano by suefein132 published on 2016-12-22T19:10:56Z Seven people Dancing describes a Harlem Dance Party at the beginning of the 1960s - taken from Hughes' story of the same name - interpreted by the one and only Paul An Genre Jazz & Blues Comment by suefein132 lyrics:Verse 1) The laugh-ter bounced, like a hard rubber ball ! Seven people dancing – 3 couples & Marcell the Fairie Marcell – colored muddy brown One man dark and handsome, His partner: the color of green tea. One white girl dancing! Verse 2) The laugh-ter bounced, like a hard rubber ball Could it have been the music? With their off rhythms, odd chords? I don’t know the ultimate “why” of anything! verse 3) 3 AM! No more cash for whiskey The white girl said – I have some So she had been to Harlem before! Verse 3) Seven people dancing Wrapp’d up in the warm music, Boppish! The music was Uran’yum It foresaw a way of Dying, The white girl a component! She made the color’d girls angry! One color’d girl told her man: Go sit down And he sat down. 2016-12-22T19:22:13Z
