Sassy - The Manhattan Transfer

Sassy - 曼哈顿行者爵士
Dig you really wanna flip your lid
Try and give a listen to the singer
Hip or square dig her wares
When money's stiff she's thrivin' on a riff
She turns the major into minor cool
In her town she's renowned
She's their crowl jewel of jazz
She's brazen simply amazin'
And her phrasin' just like a saxophone
Workin' in the daytime jammin' every night
Till the broad daylight
Blowin' over changes that would give most gals a fright
People call her Sassy that's her attitude
Actin' like the devil but when she sings her blues
You know what she's goin' through
She's hurtin' I'm certain she just can't say it
Swings when she sings her body
Her soul she's in control
Dig watch Sassy take another swig
Now she's gettin' evil with her people
Cigarette final set
Don't wanna miss her prelude to a kiss
Even the trumpet player's smilin' now
She's walkin' the line scattin' in rhyme
She's a divine jewel of jazz
She's brazen simply amazin'
And her phrasin' just like a saxophone
Workin' in the daytime jammin' every night
Till the mornin' light
Hangin' with the fellas can't quite quench her appetite
People call her Sassy 'cause she knows her mind
Someday she'll be famous and leave the grind behind
She knows what she wants to do
She knows it and shows it the girl can't help it
Swings when she sings her body
Soul she's in control
When she sings misty eyes
Workin' in the daytime jammin' everynight
Till the mornin' light
Hangin' with the fellas till she's ready to ignite
People call her Sassy 'cause she knows her mind
Someday when she's famous she'll leave the grind behind
She knows what she wants to do
She knows it and shows it the girl can't help it
Swings when she sings her body
Her soul she's in control
