Bunny Berigan

Roland Bernard "Bunny" Berigan (November 2, 1908 – June 2, 1942) was an American jazz trumpeter who rose to fame during the swing era, but whose career and influence were shortened by a losing battle with alcoholism that ended with his early death at age 33 from cirrhosis. Although he composed some jazz instrumentals like "Chicken and Waffles" and "Blues, Berigan was best known for his virtuoso jazz trumpeting. His 1937 classic recording "I Can't Get Started" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1975. more »

Let's fly away
And find a land that's warm and tropic,
Where Roosevelt is not the topic
All the live long day!

Let's fly away
And find a land that's so provincial,
We'll never hear what Walter Winchell
Might be forced to say!

I'll make your life sublime,
Far across the blue.
I'll take up all your time
Compromising you!

Let's not delay,
Make Mother Nature our Messiah,
New York is not for us,
Let's fly away!

I'll make your life sublime,
Far across the blue.
I'll take up all your time
Compromising you!

Let's not delay,
Make Mother Nature our Messiah,
New York is not for us,
Let's fly away,
Let's fly away!
