He was so cool and very calculated
With a warm embracing tone 
And a stunning dexterity 
This sax player at the Green door. 

Had a brisk tempo to match his play. 
Softly but vigorously blowing his sax 
To make his audience glad and mellow. 
This Sax Player at the Green door. 

He had a joyous love for people 
One could sense it through his notes 
With the colored lights blending with the notes 
This Sax player at the Green door. 

He could navigate space and timing 
With high and low and medium notes 
While the Bass went off in a Boom Boom Boom 
This Sax Player at the Green door. 

Casually strolling to the Piano 
There for a drink and to wipe his brow 
To say hello to a patron or two 
This Sax player at the Green door. 

Knowing just when to get back to the beat 
He would sachee back to the center on time 
To follow the beat one more time 
This Sax Player at the Green door. 

Such an uncanning precision now in a dialogue with the band 
Followed by an applause from the audience 
This is Raw and unadulterated Jazz, pure and simple Jazz 
As played by the Sax Player at the Green door.
