It’s a Jazz Day Songtext
von Brenda Russell

Metheny morning and a Whalum afternoon
It′s a jazz day
It's a jazz day

Tea with Thelonious, Yellowjacket moon
It′s a jazz day
It's a jazz day
Kickin' it my way
It′s a jazz day

Sanborn sky, bought a fare
To take me for a little ride
Steam, swing down my old, sweet sorrow

Mingus this, Mingus that
Johnny showed me where it′s at
I'll be good until tomorrow
Oh, oh

Elle é bella, simply, simple that
It′s a jazz day
It's a jazz day


Dizzy with ecstasy, chillin with the cats
It′s a jazz day
It's a jazz day
It′s a jazz day

Banz just sends me into a love dance
Wash my hair, paint my toes
I love the way the music flows
Sets the mood for this evening's romance

Metheny morning and a Whalum afternoon
It's a jazz day
It′s a jazz day

Tea with Thelonious, Yellowjacket moon
It′s a jazz day
It's a jazz day
Kickin′ it my way
It's a jazz day


Count me in
Duke it out
Count me in
Duke it out
It′s a jazz day
For Etta, the better
Count me in
Smile for Miles
