'Bout twenty years ago way down in New Orleans,
A group of fellers found a new kind of music.
An' they decided to call it...
All
Jazz!
Male Singer
No other sound had what this music has.
Before they new it, it was whizzin' 'round the world.
The world was ready for a blue kind of music,
An' now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz.
There is a story that began in New Orleans,
About this lady who discovered this music.
She fell completely in love with...
All
Jazz!
Male Singer
No one has loved it like this lady has.
They say today the lady travels 'round the world;
You'll only see her where they're playin' this music
That's why they've seen her from Steamboat Springs to
La Paz.
Jazz as her escort, to give her jazzamatazz!
Victor
Oh baby, won't you play me
Le Jazz Hot, maybe,
And don't ever let it end.
I tell ya friend, it's really somethin' to hear.
I can't sit still when there's that rhythm near me.
Also, baby, Le Jazz Hot, maybe
Don't know whether it's mornin' or night;
Only know it's soundin' right.
So come on in and play me
Le Jazz Hot, baby,
'Cause I love my Jazz...hot!
All
