1954 – Sonny Rollins
Wait’ll y’dig it on the map – Airegin
Spelled backwards
Really’re closin’ up the gap – Airegin
Gone fac’wards
Back long time ago they saw a ghost
Ghost made a boast
Soon that ghost was host
Wait’ll y’dig it on the map – Airegin
Spelled backwards
Really’re closin’ up the gap – Airegin
Gone fac’wards
Those losing their hue
They goofed ‘n got the wrong view
First, things reverse, last is first!
Y’ dig it!
