Master Blaster (Jammin’) Songtext
von Whitney Houston

The Lord wants us to jam right now
Ya man, right now

Everyone′s feeling pretty
It's hotter than July
Though the world′s full of problems
They can't touch us even if they tried

From the park, I hear rhythms
Bash is hot on the box
Tonight, there will be a party
Right here at the end of the block

They didn't know you
Would be jamming until the break of dawn
Bet you, nobody ever told you that you
Would be jamming until the break of dawn
Would be jamming and jamming and jamming, jam on
Jam on, hey, hey


They want us to join their fighting
But our answer today
Is to let all our worries
Like the free, through our fingers, slip away

Peace has come to Zimbabwe
Third World′s right on the one
Now′s the time for celebration
We've only just begun

Didn′t know that you
Would be jamming until the break of dawn
See you nobody ever told you that you
Would be jamming until the break of dawn
Oh, you nobody ever told you that you, you, you, you
Don't just stop the music, oh no, oh no
Don′t stop the love, don't stop the love, oh no
We′re in the middle of the (master blaster jamming) ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma
We're in the middle of the makings of the master blaster jamming
Oh, break of down, Reggae freaky come for me, ay


I'd like to introduce some of the brass on the stage with me
Playing trumpet is Mr. Michael "Patches" Stewart
Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up
Playing trombone is Mr. George Bohanon
Give it up
What′s that big thing?
A bari-, a bari-toon, a baritone
Playing the baritone saxophone, is Mr. Gary Bias
Playing trumpet, Oscar, Mr. Oscar Brashear
Can I hear y′all a little bit? Can you play for me a little bit?

Ah-ah
Playing percussion, please welcome Mr. Bashiri Johnson everybody
