von Scatman John

John...Ahh I'm Scatman John would you like to sing a song with me?
Louis...well, sho could...look out!
Both...one, two, three, four

Everybody Party down in Lou-ze-ana
Everybody Jam
Everybody come and take a ride with me

Follow me everybody let's head down south to the
Land of the man with a message
His name was "Satch" and he played on the "Natch" every
Time he played the horn another bleus was born
Everybody's sayin' that the way he was playin' had the
Whole world prayin' that he never gonna stop
He taught the scatman all about scat he's the
Father of it all as a matter of fact

Louis was a legend in New Orleans in the
Loui-si-ana Dixieland scene he
Made a decision that the "ole time religion" could be
Played outta the horn and the blues was born

Satchmo's breathin deep in my soul
Let me sing it to ya hal-le-luya
Hey hey what do you say
Bo ba dop bee ba doppa doppa doodn dooyeay

Everybody party down in Lou-zi-ana
Everybody jam
Everybody come and take a ride with me
Hey hey what do you say

Get out the way let Louis play

(Scatting)

Take a lesson that I learned from Louis
He only gave it to us 'cause he knew it would renew us
Love is the answer-scat's where it's at
Louis said that you could even teach a cat scat

Hear me talkin' I be talkin' to you
Louis was a swinging happy guru
You want to hear the greatest trumpet in the world, well...
(Louis solo)

Sing along with me sing along now
Join me in the opening and join me in the bow
Sing it at the sunset sing it at the dawn
You got to get it up if you want to get it on

Satchmo's breathin' deep in my soul

Let me sing it to you halleluya

Hey hey what do you say

Get out the way let Louis play

Everybody party down in Lou-zi-ana
Everybody jam (everybody)
Everybody come and take a ride with me
