STOCKHOLM SWEETNIN'
(Quincy Jones 1953)

as recorded by Jon Hendricks (live)
1990

I never figured I'd like the Swedish cold,
It's not that time of year,
But now I'm happy just as long as I know
My Stockholm sweetnin's near!

I never figured I'd like the winter winds
That bloom in Stockholm town,
But now I'm happy just as long as I know
My Stockholm sweetnin's 'round!

Stockholm to me is full of Swedish type sweetnin',
That's where I'll be whenever winter winds blow.
If I'm in Paris or Rome or London town,
When weather's in the air,
I head for Stockholm right away 'cause I know
My Stockholm sweetnin's there!
