cheryl lynne skinner: Music
creme de la creme
(Cheryl Lynne Skinner)
released on the Sunday Afternoon CD
Crème de la Creme
Words & Music by Cheryl Lynne Skinner
Her name was Sarah Vaughn
She had a luscious sound a golden tone
A voice so divine, so dark, so mellow
She could sing. She was queen.
Touch my soul just once more.
She sent in the clowns, her final encore
Her legend still lives on through her legacy of song.
Her name was Sarah Vaughn
Her name was Ella
How her voice could charm a fella
With angelic sound as smooth as silk, this doll was satin.
Pure ecstasy, when she’d start scattin’.
Her voice touched hearts all over the world
This precious gem name Ella Fitzgerald.
She could sing. Gracious queen.
Miss Ella.
JAZZ SOLOS
They touched hearts all over the world,
Sarah Vaughn and Ella Fitzgerald.
They could sing. They could swing.
Two jazz queens. They reign supreme.
Sarah and Ella, together.
Spoken: Crème de la crème ----
FOREVER
