The Vision Of Rassan

[Decication]

This is my, my dedication
A song to a father, from one to another
One to another, a brother to a brother
Cast your mind back (ooh ooh ooh)
To black Africa (ooh ooh ooh)
Little wooden ships (ooh ooh ooh)
Crossing the ocean (ooh ooh ooh)
Little wooden ships (ooh ooh ooh)
Landing on the shoreline (ooh ooh ooh)
The name of the place Lord (ooh ooh ooh)
Is New-Orleans (ooh ooh ooh)
Remember Jelly Roll Morton (ooh ooh ooh)
Later Charlie Bird Parker (ooh ooh ooh)
Travel to the north, yes (ooh ooh ooh)
With Charlie Bird Parker (ooh ooh ooh)
People goin' insane, yes (ooh ooh ooh)
With John Coltrane, Lord (ooh ooh ooh)
But can you dig on his name now? (ooh ooh ooh)
I say it's Roll on Kirk, now (ooh ooh ooh)

[Roll On Kirk]

Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll on Kirk, yeah
Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll on Kirk on, check it one more time
Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll, oh, Roll on Kirk on, mmm mmm
Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll on Kirk on, yeah.

Watch him move, every movement speaks now
Seems his tender fingers is strangled in your cheeks now
He does a little dance, and he stomps on his feet now
Yeah, he moan and moan and blows, the bellows in his cheeks now
Come on, baby.

Make them work, make them work, make them work, Roll on Kirk
Go baby
Make them work, make them work, make them work, Roll on Kirk on.

Come aboard the ship, it is a beautiful trip, Lord
You're welcome aboard, yes, especially if you're hip, child
Watch him closely while he makes up to the world now
He makes a woman aware of man, ooh, a man of a goal, now, oh.

Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll, Roll on Kirk, yeah, ow!
Make them work, make them work, make them more work
Make them more work, Roll on Kirk, now.

Yes! Captain's at the wheel, Lord, take you on a trip, yeah
You all got to excel to be invisible wit, now
It's driving me, oh no, I got to flow farther
Help me, sister, help me, brother
Take my hand, yeah, and meet me to the bellow
Keep it to my father, come on with me, brother, mmmm
Children, little bit nearer, yeah, mmm.

Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll on Kirk, Lord
Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll on Kirk, mama
Make them work, make them work, Roll on Kirk
Lord, mmm-hmm-hmm
Everything has a dream, everything has a scheme
Let's search for their reasons together, the reason together
Make them work, make them work, make them work
Roll on Kirk, all right, hey man, you need of any woman
R-R-R-R-Rassan, Kirk... R-R-R-R-Rassan...
R-R-R-R-Rassan... R-R-R-R-Rassan... Rassan, -san, -san.
