Lyrics
They call her the first lady of song
I call her the high priestess of song
She can do no wrong
She can do no wrong
She's been the greatest in the land
Since she sang with Chick Webb's band
And I love her, I love her
I tell you people I love her
Sweet and lovely Ella be good
Oh Ella, Ella be good to me
'Cause our kind of music is sometimes misunderstood
Oh Ella, Ella, Ella, you are so good for me
Some say jazz just isn't sensible
But the way she sings it makes it comprehensible
Here's a bow to the great first lady of song
Ella Fitzgerald can do no wrong
Tisket a tasket, I lost my yellow basket
Dixieland, that's jazz
Be-bop, that's jazz
Swing bands, that's jazz
That's jazz
My kind of jazz
Buddy's kind of jazz
