Take The A-Train Songtext
von After Hours

What made Crosby the singer of the age?
What made Jolson a sensation on the stage?
It′s heart that made them all
It's the difference, I say
The difference between the big and small
The call between the big and small

It doesn′t have to be witty or smart
Just as long as it comes from the heart
It doesn't have to be classic or art
Just as long as it comes from the heart
Just put some heart into your voice
And you'll become the people′s choice
That′s why I say from the start
Make sure the song comes from the heart


I ask you what makes Tyez and Zing kiss with your eyes
And how does Manilow make all the ladies sigh?
It's heart that sells their song
′Cause when you sing with heart
The song just can't go wrong
You never can go wrong

It doesn′t have to be slick or refined
Just as long as it comes from the heart
Outside the crowds will be standing in line
Just as long as it comes from the heart

So what the heck's a singer gotta do to be the rage?
Just walk right out and give it up each time you hit the stage
I say from the start
Make sure the song comes from the heart
Oh yeah, the song′s gotta come from the heart

It doesn't have to be witty or smart
It doesn't have to be classic or art
You know your song will just tear ′em apart
You′ll never go wrong as long as the song

Right from the start
Comes from the heart
From the heart
Straight from the heart
