Gotta bring back the jazz
And the Razza matazz
Bring it back into New Orleans
I?m Getting lonesome for
Those Melodies that Haunt my memories

Verse II
When I think of the beat
That would Stir Dancin? feet
Keepin? up with that ragtime swing
While Strollin? Bourbon Street
Where everybody meets

Take me back to the Big Easy, Mississippi
Gim?me that Armstrong jazz
Wanna hear some old Lou Waters, Pete Fountain
You just can?t beat what New Orleans has

Verse III
Come on Bring back the Jazz
And the Razza Matazz
Gotta bring back those old jazz tunes
It?s time we should revive
Keep New Orleans alive,
King of Jazz Razz Matazz and those Jazzy tunes
(instrumental)
*Bridge
Verse III (tag) Gotta Bring Back the Jazz to New Orleans
