歌词
作曲:
Dear gentlefolk of Newport
Or maybe I should
Say hats and cats
I want you to lend an ear
Because well I want you
To hear some really
Shimmering sharps and flats
For these cozy virtuosi
Just about the greatest
In the trade are fixing
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
Getting someplace
Take a box
One that rocks
Take a blue horn
New Orleans born
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
That's positively theraputic
Now you has jazz jazz jazz
Masters Hall and Young
That's Ed Hall
And Tommy Young
Now you has Masters
Kyle and Shaw
That's Billy Kyle
Arvil Shaw
Now you has Mr Barrett Deems
Listen to well you know who
Hey Pops you wanna grab
A little of what's left here
Yeah Daddy yeah
Here we go
If you sail
Sailing sailing
Over the sea
Will you wait for me
Take my tip they're all
Molto hip in Italy
Well Arrevederci
As for France
Oh I know you're
Very big there
Yes believe it or not
I do believe I do indeed
Frenchmen all prefer what
They call le jazz hot
Take a plane
Bobba doo zot
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 them are
Well gone man gone
From the Equator
Up to the Pole
Everybody winging
Everybody singing
That rock rock rock
Rock rock and roll
From the East to the West
From the coast to the coast
Jazz is king cause jazz is
The thing folks dig
That's jazz
