Lyrics
Led an enormous band Oh, But I know he's very lucky too Because when Mingus dies There's gonna be the same funeral They had for Duke Ellington In a big church And the whole country's going to say Wow, he was so far out, You know what I mean? No man, no big church! I'm going to be buried man I got my shit all figured out You're going to get a big funeral, You're famous Vedanta Society, India, I'm going to be buried in India I know, But you're going to get a big funeral In this country And they'll play your music for two days Who's going to do that? It's far out isn't it, y'know what I mean? You want me to hurry up, man No I don't want you to hurry up, but in the future I know you're going to get A beautiful funeral I can see it But I got it all planned, man You're going to be here many more years You know The Vedanta Society in India, Yuga? Yeah Well, I'm going to be buried By that church Yeah? So they gotta find another place to do it, That's all Plenty of time to go. You have another fifty years, you're lucky Uh, Duke lived to be 77 years old right? Right! I'm gonna cut him! Coltrane was very strong, you know I'm gonna cut Duke
