Jazzin' the Blues - Lyrics - Edgar Winter

Cool groovy jazz cats And country western buckaroos Classical conductors And rock 'n' rollers watch your cues Let the trends keep on passin', what I do's A thing called jazzin' the blues I hear some fusion Makes me wonder what to fuse Afro, Cuban, Asian Color comes in many hues But whatever style's in fashion, I'll never lose A passion for jazzin' the blues Disco to hip-hop There are many avenues Pop rock to bebop Why should I be forced to choose Ain't no fortune I'm amassin', all I'm askin' you's To let me keep on jazzin' the blues Retro to techno Is one example you can use Where a sample is ample To turn the oldies into news But through all the razzmatazzin', and ballyhoos I'm gon'a keep on jazzin' the blues No explanation I've got nothin' to excuse Without invitation Music writes it's own reviews I might be my own assassin, but win or lose I'm gon'a keep on jazzin' the blues I can take the harassin', cheers or boos I'm gon'a keep on jazzin' the blues There is nothin' surpassin', my music muse That keeps me jazzin' the blues Jazzin' the blues, Yeah
