A little jazz is just a bit of this and that
Sometimes we sing, sometimes we play, sometimes we scat
But most of all its how you feel about the groove
And when its groovin, how the groove makes you move
Jazz music sprouted rock and roll
It was the very first music that we call soul
Jazz is hot, its cool, its good, its bad
And it can change your mood to happy from sad
Jazz is hip, its groovy, its fresh, its jive
And when you play it, it makes your soul come alive
You know its the up beat rhythm that makes it bop
And once you get it started, well, it sure is hard to stop
No other music can compare
When the bass starts walkin it fills the air
You know that the sass of brass has made it last
And its the groove of blues from present to past
Hey, what about some of those great legends of jazz?
Yea, like Jazz Royalty!
Oh, you mean Duke Ellington and Count Basse.
What about the great horn players?
Louis Armstrong, yea and Miles and Dizzy too!
Dont forget Snookie.
What about Yarnburn..
What, dont you mean Charlie Parker
Yea this cool named Freddy Hubert . . . .
A little jazz is just a little bit of this and that
