(Robert Kraft)
|
The night that Monk returned to heaven
|
Climbed every step and stood on seven
|
He hummed "Epistrophy"
|
|
The light of angels shone above him
|
They mentioned God would surely love him...
|
To play "My dear, Ruby"
|
|
So Monk
|
Pure Monk
|
Sat down and played a chorus
|
And God said, "Monk...the door is open to my house
