BOBBY VALENTINO lyrics : "The Man Who Invented Jazz"

The Man Who Invented Jazz (1991)
(Music: Bobby Valentino, Lyrics: Will Birch)




I should have known better

I should have caught on
One moan from his saxophone and you were up and gone
I wanna know how he does it

Know what he has
The man who invented jazz


You're taking the A train
You're headed up town
I'll bet his little sextet, all got your number down

Could it be his charisma?
Could it be his pizzazz?
The man who invented jazz


It can't be his rhythm
It can't be his songs

What can you do with 'em
Send him back where he belongs


You're hummin' a new tune
You're wearing a smile
One bite of his blues in the night and you would run a mile

Does he strike up a fanfare?
With that razzmatazz
The man who invented jazz

I wanna know how he does it
Know what he has
The man who invented jazz
