Dr Jazz
Give me I ko
i wanna ball the wall here
shuffle in
Dumaine
hear the hooker cumby
meet my Tipatina
i love her hold her
tightly
i wanna see her swaying
New Orleans nightly
I wanna be there
Drinkin' in the morning
holler in the
evening
Dr Jazz, Dr Jazz
bake my jelly roll
you quicken my pulse
make my rhythm slow
crawfish, gumbo
rhythm from the jungle
big chief
rocking
follow the voodoo king
oola, mola, wola, dollar
that's what the
fess, he sing
How long must it be
how long must i wait
till highway 49
takes me to your gate
i eat a bowl of gumbo
that Creole child will
serve
sit on the Veranda
Happy in a dixie world
I wanna be there
Drinkin' in the morning
holler in the
evening
Dr Jazz, Dr Jazz
bake my jelly roll
you quicken my pulse
make my rhythm slow
crawfish, gumbo
rhythm from the jungle
big chief
rocking
follow the voodoo king
oola, mola, wola, dollar
that's what the
fess, he sing
Maybe on a Sunday
head for Baton Rouge
dancing with a
Cajun
twisting away my blues
then a drop of rain
trickle on my eyes
i look up and smile
at the rhythm
that never never dies

Heartbreaking World
The saddest thing
i've ever seen
was a starving face
on my TV screen
the desperate faces
that i saw
had my disbelief
dropping from my jaw
the harvest could be
shared around
instead it's
buried
in the ground
The saddest thing
i've ever seen
was a football fan
die for his team
the toughest thing
i've ever known
was the soldier boy
who never made it home
it's fiction live before our eyes
it leaves me cold
and my heart cries
it's a heartbreaking world
if you want it to be
you're the one
who breaks it for me
you're the one
who breaks it for me
the greatest thing
i've ever seen
was a new born child
looking up at me
the greatest thing
i've ever heard
was that baby's
cry
in this wicked world
the innocence of that cry
leaves me cold
and my heart cries
it's a heartbreaking world
if you want it to be
When Did You Leave Heaven
When did you get down from heaven
when did they let you go
hows everything in heaven?
i'd sure like to know
why did you trade heaven
for these earthly things
when did you lose your halo
baby when did you
lose your wings
if they would miss you
would you go back in
if i would
kiss you
would it be a sin
i'm only human
you're so divine
when did
you get down from heaven
little angel of mine
Jools Holland
I got a piano
got 88 keys
got ten little fingers
i
play what i please
tie your toes
and hang on to your hat
i'm gonna show
you
how to skin that cat
Everybody wants to know
the latest thing
and what
they're ganna wear
and what they're gonna sing
i don't know what it is
and i don't know what it's at
the only thing i know
is how to skin that
cat
You should shoot me
from a cannon
and i'd ask for more
win the grand prix
i'd still be bored
win a marathon
in 30 seconds flat
but all i wanna do
is skin that cat
Samson and Delila
what a funny pair
she took a knife
and cut off all his hair
said hey
what do you think about that
i bet
you didn't think
i could skin that cat
