Der Song war die Erkennungsmelodie der
Basketball-Mannschaft "Harlem Globe Trotters" und kam unter anderem
auch im Film "Some like it hot" von Billy Wilder vor (1959). Bekannt
wurde die Melodie auch durch die Tanznummer von Fred Astaire, arrangiert und
gespielt von der Count Basie Band.
Sweet Georgia Brown
She just got here
yesterday,
Things are hot here now, they say; There's a big change in town. Gals are jealous, there's no doubt; Still, the fellows rave about Sweet, sweet Georgia Brown! And ever since she came, The colored folks all claim, "Say,"
No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia
Brown, Two left feet, oh, so neat, Has Sweet Georgia Brown! They all sigh, and want to die, For Sweet Georgia Brown! |
