Natalie Cole

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

Chorus:
This i-is something really extra special
A ditty we like to do just for you
It's the onliest swinginest grooviest thingy that we've ever done
And if you like it then before we are thru
Then you ought to move along groove and join this song and I don't have to repeat
It's swing!
Ah yes!
Now it's complete. Wooh!

The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie Marie Cole (February 6, 1950-December 31, 2015) was an R&B icon who was primarily active from 1956 until her death in 2015 due to congestive heart failure at age 65. She first rose to success in the mid-‘70s with Inseparable and Natalie and later spawning Grammy-recognized albums like Unforgettable…With Love, which took home Album of the Year.

Cole has nine Grammy Awards out of twenty-one nominations – only a small testament to her legend.
