Natalie Cole
Swingin’ Shepherd Blues
[Scatting]

[Verse 1]
Along the mountain pass
There is a patch of grass
Where the swingin' shepherd plays a tune
His sheep never stray, dancing all day
Until they see the palin' yellow moon
And then he leads his flock
And homeward they all rock
To the tune of the swingin' shepherd blues

[Bridge]
This is something really extra special
A ditty we like to do just for you
It's the oohviest, swinginest, grooviest thingy that we've ever done
And if you like it then before we are through
Then you ought to move along, groove along
And join this song and I do have to repeat
It's swing
Ah yes, now it's complete

[Instrumental Break]
[Scatting]

[Verse 2]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Along the mountain pass
There is a patch of grass
Where the swingin' shepherd plays a tune
His sheep never stray, dancing all day
Until they see the palin' yellow moon
And then he leads that flock
And homeward they all rock
To the tune of the swingin' shepherd blues, yeah
[Outro]
Take your time, take your time
I like the way you swing it
[Scatting]
Come on, come on, come on
