Jumpin' With Symphony Sid - Joe Jackson

Jumpin' With Symphony Sid

(words by C. Beeks; music by Lester Young)

Jumpin' with my boss Sid in the city

Jumpin' with my boss Sid in the city

Mr. President of that DJ committee

We’re gonna be up all night gettin' ready

We want you to spin the sounds from the city

Far down in the land that’s real real pretty

Let everything go real crazy over jazz

Make everything go real crazy over jazz

Let everything cool for me and my baby

I don’t wanna think we’re listening too lazy

It’s gotta be Pressburg cheering all the Basie

It’s gotta get it all set right clear on the eighty

Let it roll

Let it roll
