I remember Christmas morning
Back in 1954
When we moved up to Mount Savage
As if it mattered anymore
Mama always said
How the air can clear her head
We were colder and much higher
Than we ever were before
I recall her tailored jersey
And the flowers that she wore
Years ago I tried to tell her
What was in my heart
But she was part of the city
She took a little with sugar
She took the money from my old man
She took a little with sugar
She took the money from my old man
All the years that she was with us
You could count them on one hand
I was taken with her showboat style
But too young to understand
She was all alone
Ahead of her time
She was first generation
[Chorus, and variations of it, to fade]
Steely Dan is an American musical group formed in New York City in 1972, known for its sophisticated and distinctive sound, a fusion of jazz, rock, funk, rhythm and blues, and pop. Founding members Donald Fagen and Walter Becker have always maintained a high level of attention to music production, characterized by complex arrangements and impeccably defined sound. Their often introspective music, rich in cultural references, anticipated many musical trends of the 1980s. Among their most representative songs are "Reelin' in the Years", "Deacon Blues" and "Peg". Steely Dan released ten studio albums between 1972 and 1980, achieving significant critical and commercial success. After a hiatus of over twenty years, the band reunited in 2000 for new recordings and tours, demonstrating their enduring ability to captivate a wide and diverse audience.
