UP JUMPED SPRING
(Freddie Hubbard / Abbey Lincoln)



(Saxophone Solo)

I was out promenadin'
And high hopes was fadin'
That dreams never really come true
When up jumped Spring...time
I got a look at you

All at once it was heady
A gaze long and steady
Made sounds of the patter grow dim
And up jumped Spring...time
And love came on in

Now my heart wants to cheer
Life's sweet promise is here
And love is a lov-er-ly thing

And we're sweethearts together
Like bird and the feather
Our love is as free as the wind
'Cause up jumped Spring...time
So, hello my friend

(Drum Solo)

Now my heart wants to cheer
Life's sweet promise is here
And love is a lovely thing

And we're sweethearts together
Like bird and the feather
Our love is as free as the wind
'Cause up jumped Spring...time
So, hello my friend
