Lyrics:
"Hipness is not a state of mind but a fact of life"
He used to say
A big man with a big alto sound
Folks affectionately called him Cannonball
[lyrics was taken from http://www.lyrics.my/artists/dianne-reeves/lyrics/jive-samba] [ Jive Samba lyrics found on http://lyrics.my ]
A teacher, historian, a jazz griot, someone wrote
Cannon could blow a sermon with every note
Departed at the young age of forty-three plus three
But not without leaving us a rich jazz legacy
He used to say
A big man with a big alto sound
Folks affectionately called him Cannonball
