Little Jazz on my birthday
Kings Crown Radio
special every year

Schaap lays down
the JATP grooves

All the tracks of this
Steeltown cat

A perennial
birthday bash

Takes me Uptown
With Roy and Anita

Strolling arm and arm
Singing bout a city

Checkin out the sights
Knockin me a kiss

On the fat lobe lips
Of my eager ear

Ole Little Jazz
Hittin the high note

Blowin somethin cool
Playing with the great cats

He’s one himself
A lion of the bandstand

You can hear a him growl
When he blows that horn

Or a prissy ***** purr
Fine and mellow
on a bouncy ballad

Or check a lonely tomcat
moanin the blues
As he swings on down
some dark alley in Chicago

Yea, he’s one cool cat
this Eldridge dude
One cool Little Jazz cat
