FAIR WEATHER
(Kenny Dorham / Benny Golson)

as recorded by Chet Baker
(vocal & trumpet) and others


When we walk side by side like brothers,
Old Glory will stand up and whirl,
And Gabriel will blow as he never has blown before.

There'll be fair weather together, side by side,
It will know that hate will die and love will win.
So go forth heroes, peace on earth and goodwill to all
Who make it divine, and so real.
Plant seeds for good deeds, like the trees,
And of course love will grow!

Money doesn't fit into the scheme of things,
So how can a house be built on angel wings?
Fair weather together,
Fair weather my friend.

When we walk side by side like brothers,
Old Glory will stand up and whirl,
Then Gabriel will blow as he never has blown before. 
There'll be fair weather together,
Fair weather my friend.
