Legendary vocaleze artist, scatting is when you make instrumentation sounds, vocaleze is when you are saying words but in an instrumentive way. It is a style of singing, so all songs with a vocaleze artist are interpreted in a unique way.

If you're playin' All I'm sayin' is feelin's sure can lie If you're lyin', keep on lyin' Don't tell the truth Don't you dare (don't you dare) You can't drop me 'Cause you still got me After takin' me way up there Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh If I ever lose this heaven If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven (hoo!) Whoa-oh-oh-oh I'll never be the same Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho If I ever lose this heaven If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven (hoo!) Whoa-oh-oh-oh I'll never be the same When you're kind, extra kind Then suddenly, you'll cross You're so moody You get to me Still can't turn you off You're fascinating More fascinating than the dark side of the moon You're so exciting That I'm rewriting the book of love called You Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh If I ever lose this heaven If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven (hoo!) Whoa-oh-oh-oh I'll never be the same Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho If I ever lose this heaven If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven Whoa-oh-oh-oh I'll never be the same Whoa-ho-ho-ho-ho If I ever lose this heaven If I ever, ever, ever lose this heaven (hoo!) Whoa-oh-oh-oh I'll never be the same

We Got By 

I hardly had a bellyful Never knew a new bicycle Hand-me-down books and shoes They brought the yule tides in July I rode a bus, a train and sometimes Strolling for miles to a movie show Singing a song "Shoobedoo" While birds and rich folks flew right on by But we got by, we got by We got by, Lord knows we got by Winter wishes wait till June We brightened July with that hot dog fun Tell your mama you're with Sue You bring the beans and I will find the wine Them neon lights were bright till 2: 00 And sneaking back home with this girl named Jo I hurried down to say I do And stared my first man-child in the eye But we got by, we got by We got by, Lord knows we got by Sometimes I say And now baby's got his bellyful y'all And finally here's that new bicycle Working, praying, June to June And mama's got L.A. gleaming in her eye And we got by, we got by, yeah We got by, Lord knows we got by See we kept on walking and talking and hawking And ooing, and cooing, and wooing Loving, and tugging, and hugging And a rubbing and sugging, and fugging Laying, praying, swaying, letting And fretting, and betting, begetting Lying, and flying, and trying And dying, and sighing We got by, yes, we got by We got by, yeah, let's now help me sing By and by, by and by By and by, by and by Oh, we gonna sweet, sweet by, and didn't we get there? By, by, by, by Thank you mama provided, thank you papa 'Causing me to tremble

Oh, yeah, That's it, that's it, that's it That's it that's it that's it baby What your mama gonna say when she finds that you party like this girl? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? On the town Sequins, evening gown Climb those stairs To that ballroom in the air Get to poppin' Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? If you dare Dream of yesteryear In the air Do a step with Fred Astaire Get your top hat Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? You can be What you want to be Come and waltz like me Or a hot steppin' boogie Funk in the pocket Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? No one stays In downtown these days Country calls Got us one and all Before we end Let me recommend What to do When your heart is light or blue You get to steppin' Does anyone wanna go waltzing in the garden? Does anyone wanna go dance up on the roof? Come on let's party, my good friends. Party; come let's party. Party; come let's party, now. Party; come let's party. Party; come let's party, now.

Sweet Baby side Stanley Clarke

Sweet Baby

When I think about your lovin' The Sunday evenings, the fun we used to share Looking through the memories in my mind Since I've laughed and cried and thought it over I finally realize that it's never over, it's only set aside Honey it's you, sweet baby I will never be free from your embrace, sweet baby Only hoping it's not too late to try again Honey it's you, sweet baby Ever lost and captured by your smile, sweet baby I will always be right there by your side Right by your side Lying here alone I'm dreaming My mind keeps wandering, my thoughts are only you Looking through the memories in my mind How could love so real have turned so empty I just keep wondering why Will I ever find the love we shared together, you and I Girl it's you, sweet baby Though we had such a long hard road to climb, sweet baby Only hoping it's not too late to try again It's you, sweet baby Won't you try belivin what i say, sweet baby I will always be right there by your side Right by your side I will always, I will always I will always be right there by your side
