At The Jazz Band Ball - Susannah McCorkle[00:00:00]

Back when a nickel would buy[00:00:06]

One drink of respectable rye[00:00:08]

The players in the honky tonks[00:00:11]

Would have to work on a slide[00:00:13]

One two was known to a few[00:00:15]

Some steady habitues too[00:00:18]

So the word of mouth spread around the south[00:00:20]

So entrez nous[00:00:23]

You better dig that jazz band ball[00:00:24]

Cause it's the ball of them all[00:00:27]

For five musicians in the small saloon[00:00:29]

Inventin' the rag time tune[00:00:32]

They kind made up their own brand[00:00:34]

Without a note on the stand[00:00:36]

And they called it D I X I E [00:00:39]

Hot pan alley candy land[00:00:41]

Well sir you know it caught on[00:00:49]

What's more it was strictly bontom[00:00:52]

Cause like the winner at the starting gate[00:00:54]

The music got it and gone[00:00:56]

Jazz moved from over the tracks[00:00:59]

Into the society shacks[00:01:01]

It was wonderful[00:01:04]

And deductible from the income tax[00:01:05]

You better dig that jazz band ball[00:01:08]

It's the ball of them all[00:01:10]

When the trumpet player took a monologue[00:01:13]

The people said "oh hot dog"[00:01:16]

And if you ask them why the yell[00:01:18]

They kinda grin then say well[00:01:20]

When the band plays J A double zee[00:01:23]

It's a B A double L[00:01:25]

You better dig that jazz band ball[00:02:23]

Cause it's the ball of them all[00:02:26]

When the band plays J A double zee[00:02:37]

It's a B A double L[00:02:40]

Ball[00:02:43]
