Jumpin' with my boss in inner city
Jumpin' with my boss in inner city
He's the president of the DJ committee
We're gonna be up all night gettin' witty
Wants you to spin the sounds that are witty
From down in the land that's real, real pretty
Make everything go real crazy over jazz
Make everything go real crazy over jazz
Play everything cool for me and my baby
We don't wanna think we're listening lazy
It's gotta be fresh, but gee, we're gonna base it
If you got us all set right, cool, ho, steady
Let it roll
If you tune into your radio
You can hear 'em loud and clear
Spinnin' your favorite tracks
Johnny Griffin's tenor sax
And all around Manhattan all the cats
Are jumpin' with Symphony Sid
Just tie in your wig and line up and dig
Symphony Sid, he's got the power to make you swing
He's the king, ding dong ding
In the car or in a diner on the square
It really doesn't matter where, Jack
Long as you're there 'cause when Sid is 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 night
Classic jazz recordings spinnin' 'til the morning light
And it feels alright
When you listen to the Bird
You will flip, Charlie Parker spread the word
All the way up from Kansas City
Groovy as he could be
What a lot of, lot of pleasure
Tuning into Sydney
Let it roll

Al Skid, go
Let it roll

Let it roll
Jumpin' with my boss in inner city
Jumpin' with my boss in inner city
He's the president of the DJ committee
We're gonna be up all night gettin' witty
Wants you to spin the sounds that are witty
From down in the land that's real, real pretty
Make everything go real crazy over jazz
Make everything go real crazy over jazz
Play everything cool for me and my baby
We don't wanna think we're listening lazy
It's gotta be fresh, but gee, we're gonna base it
If you got us all set right, cool, ho, steady
Let it roll
Thank you, sir, and so good to be back here in Berlin
I sang here in 1968 with Count Basie's orchestra
When I was a little, a little boy
