Now You Has Jazz Lyrics

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 Frenchmens 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.
