Jazzman

Lift me, won't you lift me above the old routine
 Make it nice, play it clean jazzman
 ♪
 When the jazzman's testifyin' a faithless man believes
 He can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees
 It's a gospel kind of feelin', a touch of Georgia slide
 A song of pure revival and a style that's sanctified
 Jazzman take my blues away, make my pain
 The same as yours with every change you play
 Jazzman, oh jazzman
 ♪
 When the jazzman's signifyin', and the band is windin' low
 It's the late night side of morning in the darkness of his soul
 He can fill a room with sadness as he fills his horn with tears
 He can cry like a fallen angel when risin' time is near
 Jazzman take my blues away, make my pain
 The same as yours with every change you play
 Oh lift me, won't you lift me, with ev'ry turn around
 Play it sweetly, take me down, oh jazzman
