God Bless The Child That's Got His

I Joined Count Basie's Band To Make A Little Money And To See The World. For Two Years I Didn't See Anything But The Inside Of A Blue Goose Bus, And I Never Got To Send Home A Quarter.

I Can Only Sing Songs My Way. I Don't Know Any Other Way.

I Try To Improvise Like Les Young, Louis Armstrong Or Someone Else I Admire. What Comes Out Is What I Feel.

If I Don't Have Friends, Then I Ain't Nothing.

Sometimes It's Worse To Win A Fight Than To Lose.
