[00:18.80]5000 light years from Birdland
[00:21.37]But I'm still preachin' the rythym
[00:25.10]Long gone uptight years from Birdland
[00:27.39]And I'm still teachin' it with 'em
[00:31.26]Years from the land of the Bird
[00:33.35]And I am still feelin' the spirit
[00:37.22]5000 light years from Birdland

[01:02.77]In the middle of that hub
[01:05.93]I remember one jazz club
[01:09.09]Where we went to pat feet
[01:12.09]Down on 52nd Street
[01:15.40]Everybody heard that word
[01:18.17]That they named it after Bird
[01:21.45]Where the rythym swooped and swirled
[01:24.56]The jazz corner of the world
[01:27.62]And the cats they gigged in there
[01:30.62]Were beyond compare
