歌詞

I stepped in through the red curtain door

My shoes went tap on the checkered floor

You tipped your hat like you knew the score

Then that trumpet laughed for more

My gloves were white, my grin was wide

The whole room swung like a carnival ride

You winked once, I lost my pride

And the trumpet answered bright

Piano said, "Now don't you stall"

Clarinet climbed up the wall

I took your hand, we let it all

Spin like a silver ball

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

You know I like that path

Swing, little heart, swing

Swing, little heart, swing

Till the rafters ring

Your brass smile flashed in the light

I sang my line, you bit it right

Every note came out in a bite

Then you danced through the night

The bandstand shook, but I stood tall

You blew a grin across it all

I said "Come on" and you heard the call

With a laugh that broke the wall

Brushes whisper, feet go round

Bass keeps walking that merry sound

I toss my hair, you duck and bow

Tell me you hear me now

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

You know I like that path

Swing, little heart, swing

Swing, little heart, swing

Till the rafters ring

Now the moon hung like a spotlight beam

You played my punchlines, clean and mean

I sang the punch, you stole the scene

Best little trick I've seen

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

We make a perfect path

Swing, little heart, swing

Swing, little heart, swing

Till the rafters ring

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

Laugh, little trumpet, laugh

And don't stop now with me
