Tonalità: Ab major•
Verse 1
Ab
In May of 1956,
on the eve of the Gold Coast Independence,
Louis Armstrong,
who is convinced that his great
-grandparents
came from here,
went back,
at the invitation of the Prime Minister
and as the representative of
that great free nation
across the seas,
where both the blues
and the colored people
had their first awakening.
Satchmo returned to Africa,
an international figure,
as the crowd roared
and the bands, seven of them,
played an old Gold Coast favorite,
Verse 2
now renamed All For You, Louie.
Ab
I for you, you are for you.
I for you, you are for you.
Gb
We are indeed extremely happy
Ab
to be visited by such an eminent character as Satchmo,
and And on this occasion we hope that he and his band,
Gb
Mrs. Armstrong an d his crooner,
Db
Ab
will do their level best
to remember for the
rest of their lives
what they have seen today
in the Gold Coast.
We felt that it would have been wrong
to have allowed them to come
here to merely play
and then go away
without taking anything
back with them.
Therefore we are taking advantage
of this occasion
to extend a handshake to them,
a cultural handshake over to the United States of America,
to the coloured people there
Db
Ab
whom we look upon as our own.
We look to them
because we feel that deep down
in their own hearts
they must realise that they came from
this part of the world.
Ab
So today we are indeed very happy.
Now, I want to tell you
what we propose to do.
Ab
Louis wishes to extend
an invitation to us.
Louis is going to play,
Ab
an d he invites anybody
who feels that he can dance
to that kind of music
to come forward and dance.
At an evening concert,
Louis played an old favourite
for Prime Minister
and Coma. himself an old jazz fan
from his university days in Philadelphia.
