Willie the Weeper Lyrics


Yonder comes Willie the weeper saddest looking sight in all the town
Had a new love but couldn't keep her now Willie's crying heart is broken downYou should have seen the smiling face that Willie wore
The day he found the thrill of her embrace
For the first time in his whole life Willie fell in love
But I took the smile right off of Willie's face took his place
Yonder comes Willie the weeper...I put on the smiling face that Willie wore and took her round for everyone to see
But she found someone else that she wanted more
Now Willis's smiling face laughs back at me look and see
I'm just like Willie the weeper saddest looking sight in all the town
Had a new love but couldn't keep her now mine and Willie's hearts are broken down

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Hot Five was Louis Armstrong's first jazz recording band led under his own name. It was a typical New Orleans jazz band in instrumentation, consisting of trumpet, clarinet, and trombone backed by a rhythm section. The original new orleans jazz style leaned heavily on collective improvisation, where the three horns together played the lead: the trumpet played the main melody, and the clarinet and trombone played improvised accompaniments to the melody.
