Cole Porter - 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 ba** 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
