CECILE MCLORIN SALVANT
"Social Call"
(Jon Hendricks)

Happened to pass your doorway
Gave you a buzz, that's all
Lately, I thought lots about you
So I thought I'd pay a social call

Do you recall the old days?
We used to have a ball
Not that I'm lonesome without you
I just thought I'd pay a social call

[Bridge:]
I'd lie and say
Things are just so swell
But to tell the truth
I have not been too well

And if I should try and kiss you
Promise that you won't stall
Maybe we'll get back together
Starting from this incidental, elemental
Simple social call

[Bass solo]

[Saxophone solo]

Happened to pass your doorway
Gave you a buzz, that's all
Lately, I thought lots about you
So I thought I'd pay a social call

Do you recall the old days?
We used to have such a ball
Not that I'm lonesome without you
I just thought I'd pay a social call

[Bridge:]
I'd lie and say
Things are just swell
But to tell the truth
I have not been too well

And if I should try and kiss you
Promise that you won't stall
Maybe we'll get back together
Starting from this incidental, elemental
Simple social call
