Artist/Band: Dizzy Gillespie
Lyrics for Song: It's The Talk Of The Town
Lyrics for Album: Quadromania [2006]



We were more than lovers,


We were more than sweethearts,


It's so hard to understand.





Don't know why it happened,


Don't know how it started,


Why should we be strangers,


After all we planned.





I can't show my face,


Can't go anyplace,


People stop an' stare,


It's so hard to bear,


Everybody knows you left me,


It's the talk of the town





Every time we meet,


My heart skips a beat,


We don't stop to speak,


'Though it's just a week,


Everybody knows you left me,


It's the talk of the town





We send out invitations,


To friends and relations,


Announcing our weddin' day


Friends and our relations,


Gave congratulations,


How can you face them?


What can you say?





Let's make up sweetheart,


We can't stay apart,


Don't let foolish pride,


Keep you from my side,


How can love like ours be ended?


It's the talk of the town


How can you face them?





What can you say?





Let's make up sweetheart,


We can't stay apart,


Don't let foolish pride,


Keep you from my side,


How can love like ours be ended?


It's the talk of the town, hm





It's the talk of the town.


It's The Talk Of The Town - Dizzy Gillespie

Dizzy Gillespie's "It's The Talk Of The Town" stands as a quintessential example of his pioneering work in bebop and swing. Originally recorded in 1946, the track showcases Gillespie's virtuosic trumpet playing and his ability to weave complex jazz harmonies into an infectious, danceable rhythm. The song became a staple of the era's popular music, reflecting the vibrant energy of the mid-1940s New York jazz scene. While often associated with the broader swing era, this recording highlights Gillespie's transition into more advanced jazz structures, influencing generations of musicians who followed. The composition remains a beloved standard, frequently covered by artists across various genres, cementing its place in the American musical canon.
