Jumpin' with Symphony Sid - Live

Lyrics

'Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome Mr. Georgie Fame'
 Jumpin' with my boy, Sid, in the city
 Jumpin' with my boy, Sid, in the city
 Mr. President of the DJ committee
 We're gonna be up all night gettin' with it
 Want you to spin the sounds that are with it
 From down in the land that's real, real pretty
 Make everything go real crazy over Jersey
 Make everything go real crazy over Jersey
 (Woo!)
 Make everything cool for me an' my baby
 We don't wanna think we're listenin' lazy
 Gotta be Pressburg cheerin' all the Basie
 The dial is all set right though for 8-0
 Let it roll
 If you tune in to your radio
 You hear Moreno clear
 Spinnin' your favourite tracks
 Johnny Griffin's tenor sax
 And all around Manhattan, all the cat's are jumpin'
 With Symphony Sid
 So tighten your wig
 Come out in the boon, dig! ส
 He's Symphony Sid
 He's got the power to make you swing
 He's the King
 Ding, dong, ding
 Ain't a-callin' him
 Down or in a square
 Really doesn't matter where, Jack!
 Long as you're there
 'Cause we said he's on the air
 You hear the sweetest sounds
 That you ever heard
 And I mean to say
 It's the grooviest way to get down
 Every single name
 Classic Jazz they taught him
 Spinnin' till the mornin' light
 And it feels alright
 When you listen to the 'Bird'
 You will flip!
 Charlie Parker's spread the word
 All the way up from Kansas City
 Gr-ooo-vy as he could be
 What a pleasure
 Tuning in to Sidney
 Let it ro-ooo-ooo-oooll
 Let it ro-ooo-ooo-oooll
 Jumpin' with my boy, Sid, in the city
 Jumpin' with my boy, Sid, in the city
 Mr. President of the DJ committee
 We're gonna be up all night gettin' with it
 We want you to spin the sounds that are with it
 From down in the land that's real, real pretty
 Make everything go real crazy over Jersey (wee!)
 Make everything go real crazy over Jersey (wee!)
 Gotta be cool for me n' my baby (woo!)
 We don't wanna think we're listenin' lazy
 It's gotta be Pressburg cheerin' all the Basie
 That's all for now tune in tomorrow night!
 Bye-i-i-i-i!
 'Thank you for the great, Lester Young'
 'Thank you for Lester Young and King Pleasure'
