Lyrics:
“OPUS ONE” Words & Music by Sy Oliver Copyright 1945. Key G
“ I’m wrackin’ my brain to think of a name to give to this tune so Frankie can croon
and maybe Ol’ Bing will give it a fling, and that’ll start ev’ry one hummin’ the thing
The melody’s dumb repeat and repeat, but if you can swing it’s got a good beat,
And that’s the main thing to make with the feet ‘cause rockin’ rhythm’s rulin’ today
So I’ll call it Opus One !
Come on latch on and jump, Hey – hey - hey-it’s Opus One
This ain’t no time to slump ------Maybe---
If Benny the king would do it in swing, and mister T.D. could rock it for me, there’s never a doubt
You’ll knock yourself out- whenever you should hear OPUS ONE”
