Swingin' Shepherd Blues
Composer(s): Moe Koffman - Kenny Jacobson - Rhoda Roberts
Performer(s): Ella Fotzgerald
and multiple other artists



Along a mountain pass
There is a patch of grass
Where the swingin' shepherd plays his tune'
His sheep never stray
Dancing all day
Till they see the pale and yellow moon
And then he leads his flock
and homeward they all rock
To the tune of the swingin' shepherd blues

Wail on shepherd
Play those haunting trills
Come home sheopherd
Let it ech through the hills!
