Mary Kay Place & Willie Nelson -- Something To Brag About

[video=youtube;14WM0F35Pl8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14WM0F35Pl8[/video]

I got real important job in large office building
Riding people in an elevator
I drive a '57 Chevrolet with busted tail lights,
Burned out valves and a leaky radiator
And I wear a twenty dollar suit
That I bought from J.C. Penney's back in 1962
But I've got something to brag about
Something to brag about. Something to brag about in you

I'm a short order cook in an all-night cafe
Down on 18th Avenue and 12th Street
I wear a swinging mini dress that I made for myself
From Mama's kitchen curtains and old bedsheets
I've got seventeen pages of Top Value stamps,
One old pair of shoes
But I've got something to brag about.
Something to brag about. Something to brag about in you

When you're with the fellows
I know you start bragging
About my hourglass figure
And my big brown eyes

And you tell your girlfriends
About my sweet, sweet loving
And that's one figure
That money can't buy

So let's get married in the not too distant future
We'll rent a little flat on 29th Street
You know we'll hang our washing
From the clothesline on the window
We'll feast on cornbread, Butter Creams and lunch meat
We don't have a thermostat, a big long Cadillac
We'll have a love that's true
And I'll have something to brag about
Something to brag about in you.

Glenn Miller's first available aircheck, June 20, 1938, from the Paradise Restaurant just off B'way. The band was very good, but the announcer and audience sound listless and apathetic, maybe because Glenn was not yet the next big thing and everybody knew it, or maybe because it was 2 a.m. and anyone with any get up and go had got up and gone.

What a wonderful combination when Billie sang with Artie Shaw's band for a short while. I love this recording of the song. Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra "Did I Remember" - 1936[video=youtube;P_D0uSQ8YLg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_D0uSQ8YLg[/video]
