Spreadin' Rhythm Around (Lady Bug vs. Lady Day RR Remix)

That rhythm
That rhythm (Lady Bug)
Spread that rhythm (disperse the jazz sound, that rhythm)
That rhythm

That rhythm (Lady Bug)
That rhythm
Spread that rhythm (disperse the jazz)
That rhythm
That rhythm (disperse the jazz sound)
Spread that rhythm

Disperse the jazz sound

Music everywhere, feet are pattin'
Puttin' tempo in old Manhattan
Everybody is out high-hattin'
Spreadin' rhythm around

Everywhere you go trumpets blarin'
Drums and saxophones rip and tearin'
Everybody you meet is rarin'
Spreadin' rhythm around

Up in Harlem in every flat they give it that thing
Which according to one and all is what they call swing

Those who can't afford silk and satin
Dance with gigolos who are Latin
Come from Yonkers, the Bronx and Staten
Spreadin' rhythm around

Baby, baby, baby, I know it's been cold
But truth be told, hard times we can't get over
So in the meantime let's turn off the Hova
Go deep into the groove, meet me in Blue Moon

Let the horns speak, and tell of high fever
Lay out, as the licks play out
We could get berserk, keep my smartie-pants smirk
Get the quarter-note, drop bombs like Max Roach

Lady Day, she make way for Lady Bug
Body and Soul, and my blue with Strange Fruit
Embody the blues complex, I'm on extent
Spreadin' out, disperse the jazz sound

From Bell's Point Harlem, down nigga's playhouse
Four corners of the globe where the story is told
In the dark hour can't stop the aqua skate
It's all or nothing at all, holiday celebrate (celebrate)

Music everywhere, feet are pattin'
Puttin' tempo in old Manhattan (that's right)
Everybody is out high-hattin'
Spreadin' rhythm around

Everywhere you go trumpets blarin'
Drums and saxophones rip and tearin'
Everybody you meet is rarin'
Spreadin' rhythm around

Up in Harlem in every flat they give it that thing
Which according to one and all is what they call swing

Those who can't afford silk and satin
Dance with gigolos who are Latin
Come from Yonkers, the Bronx and Staten
Spreadin' rhythm around

Spreadin' rhythm around

Spreadin' rhythm around
That rhythm
Spread that rhythm (disperse the jazz sound)
That rhythm
Spread that rhythm (disperse the jazz)

Spreadin' rhythm around

Spreadin' rhythm around

Those who can't afford silk and satin
Dance with gigolos who are Latin
Come from Yonkers, the Bronx and Staten
Spreadin' rhythm around

Disperse the jazz sound
Disperse the jazz sound
Spreadin' rhythm around
