Now You Has Jazz (feat. Louis Armstrong) [Music from the Motion Picture "High Society"] |
Dear gentlefolk of Newport |
Or maybe I should say, hats and cats |
I want you to lend an ear |
Because, eh, I want you to hear |
Some really shimmering sharps and flats |
For these cozy virtuosi |
Just about the greatest in the trade |
Are fixin' to show you now precisely how |
Or approximately jazz music is made |
Well, you take some skins, jazz begins |
Then you take a bass |
Man, now we’re gettin' some place |
Take a box, one that rocks |
Take a blue horn, New Orleans-born |
Ah, you take a stick with a lick |
Take a bone, ho-ho-hold the phone |
Take a spot, cool and hot |
Now you has jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz |
Le tout ensemble |
Ah, that’s positively therapeutic |
Now you has jazz, jazz, jazz |
Messrs, Hall and Young |
Ah said Hall and Tommy Young |
Now you has Messrs Kyle and Shaw |
That’s Billy Kyle, Arvel Shaw |
Now you has Mr. Barret Deans |
Well, listen to, well, you know who |
Say hey pops, you wanna grab a little of what’s left here? |
Yeah, daddy, yeah, here we go |
If you sail a-sailin', sailin' over the sea |
When you wait for me |
Take my tip, they’re all molto hip in Italy |
Well, arrivederci as for France |
Oh, I know you’re very big there |
Yes, believe it or not, I do believe, I do indeed |
The Frenchmen’s all, prefer what they call 'Le jazz hot' |
Take a plane, go to Siam |
In Bangkok today 'round the clock |
Well, they all like to jam |
Indians on the Amazon |
Beat one bar and all of 'em are |
Ah well, gone, man, gone |
Ah, from the equator up to the pole |
Everybody wingin', everybody singin' |
That rock, rock, rock, rock, rock and roll |
From the east to the west |
From the coast to the coast jazz is king |
Jazz is the thing that folks dig most |
Now that’s jazz |
