Would you like to sing a song man?
Well, sure could look out...

Everybody party down to Louisiana
Everybody jam yeh
Everybody come and take a ride with me
Follow me everybody let's head down south
To the land with the man with the message
His name was Satch and he played on the match
Everytime he played the horn another blues was born
Everybody's saying that the way he was playing
Had the whole world praying that he never gonna stop
He taught the Scatman all about scat
He's the father of it all as a matter of fact.
Louis was a legend in New Orleans
And the Louisiana Dixieland scene
He made a decision that the old time religion
To be played out the horn and the blues was born
Satchmo's breathing deep in my soul
Let me sing it to you
Hallelujah hey hey whaddya say?
Everybody party down to Louisiana
Everybody jam
Everybody come an take a ride with me
Hey hey whaddya say
Get out the way, let Louis play
Take a lessons that I learnt from Louis
He only give it to us 'cause he knew it would renew us.
Love is the answer, scat's where it's at
Louis said even you could teach a cat scat
Shouldn't be talking about it talking to you
Louis was one swinging happy guru
If you wanna hear the greatest trumpet in the world, well
Sing along with me sing along now
Join me in the opening and join me in the bow
Singing in the sunset singing at the dawn
You've gotta get it up if you want to get it on
Satchmo's breathing deep in my soul
Let me sing it to you
Hallelujah hey hey whaddya say
Get out the way, let Louis play!
Everybody party down to Louisiana
