Jazz Baby versuri

Versuri Carol Channing & Julie Andrews – Jazz Baby lyrics

My daddy was a ragtime trombone player
My mommy was a ragtime cabaret-er
They met one day at a tango tea
There was a syncopated wedding
And then came me!

Folks think the way I walk is a fad
But it’s a birthday present from my mommy and daddy

I’m a jazz baby, little jazz baby, that’s me
There’s something in the tone of a saxophone
That makes me do a little wiggle all my own!
‘Cause I’m a jazz baby
Full of jazz-bo harmony

That „Walk The Dog” and „Ball The Jack” that caused all the talk
Is just a copy of the way I naturally walk!
‘Cause I’m a jazz baby, little jazz baby that’s me!

Rocked to sleep while the cradle went to and fro
To and fro to the tune of the tickle-toe
Ever since I started into grow
Love to hear the music playing, see my dear old mommy swayin’!

Razz-ma-tazz, that’s all I ever knew
All day long I never would get thru
Jazz-ma-tazz, that’s all I wanna do
So play me a little jazz!

Jazz baby, full of jazz-bo harmony
The wailin’ of the saxes when those fellas go mad
Cannot compare with what I got from Mommy and Dad
So hear this jazz baby

Little jazz
Baby, that’s me
