about

I wrote this about a picture I found at the Melrose Trading post in Hollywood. It had the words "Antoinette Savage in my backyard" written on the back. She was a real lady.

lyrics

Antoinette Savage

Antoinette Savage wore a music pin on her dress
Her platinum blond curls caught the sunlight right
She could always make an entrance
Her laugh was like a trumpet tooting
rat tat tat tat ...

You couldn't help but sing along
when Netty was in the room
and Netty would say
"Don't be sharp, girl. Don't be flat. Just B natural, natural, just like that."
She was a jazz cat.
She was all that.
Antoinette Savage in my backyard.

Netty told stories of old blue eyes and how he kissed her hand.
Or about how Lady sang the blues till dawn
It was just a one night stand
Her stories sound like a saxaphone
bum bum bum ba da...

You couldn't help but sing along
when Netty was in the room
and Netty would say
"Don't be sharp, girl. Don't be flat. Just B natural, natural, just like that."
She was a jazz cat.
She was all that.
Antoinette Savage in my backyard.

Her life was like an old jazz tune
jwah da doo de da doo...

She was a jazz cat
She was all that
Antoinette Savage in my backyard.
