Name: Smoke 'Em if You Got 'Em
Duration: P00H02M01S
Description: Can’t let Dave Brubeck have all the fun: here’s my 5/4 time, on which my sister Sadimka was kind enough to play the flute. By the way, its no apology for tobacco, just another way (albeit outdated) to say “take five”. Had this been an old-style LP, this is where side “A” would end.

lyrics

Just take it easy stop for a spell
No need to hurry you're doin' well
Time for a break no one will condemn
It’s yours to take so smoke 'em if you got 'em

Look up at the sky the sun is shinin' down
No need to reason why wipe off that worried frown
Kick off your shoes pour yourself a drink
You’ve paid your dues relax get out of synch

Just take five there ain’t no need to rave
Forget the rhythm by old brother Dave
Time for a break no one will condemn
It’s yours to take so smoke 'em if you got 'em
