Early bright

EARLY BRIGHT (N) — morning.

He puts the boys to sleep with boogie every night / And wakes them up the same way in the early bright

It was three a.m. in the early brights, / And the joint was loaded with darks and lights. / A G.I. square was lapping Saki, / Hep to his jive, a Kat in Khaki.

Old Satchmo is back on the Main Drag and is gonna be beatin' out-ta mess o' righteous jive at the shpo-shoo spot until the early brights.

She said she's leaving town about midnight / Arriving in the city on the early bright

Aw, let me get right / I’m out here in the early bright

A-mornin', noon and night / And in the early bright / Don't you fret, my pretty pet / I'm gonna treat you right
