Jazz Music Lyrics - No More Mr. Nice Guy - Gangstarr

(Guru) 

The music started in the hearts and drums, from another land 

Played for everyone, by sons, of the motherland 

Sendin out a message of peace, to everybody and 

came across the oceans in chains and shame 

Easing the pain, and it was without name 

Until some men in New Orleans on Rampart Street 

Put out the sounds, and then they gave it a beat 

I'm talkin bout Jelly Roll, King, and Satch 

I'm talkin bout the music that had no match 

Yes the music, and it was born down there 

We're gonna use it, so make the horn sound clear 

It's jazz music... jazz music

POPULAR SONG: Post Malone - 'Circles' - LYRICS 

Yo, the music that Pops, and other cats made 

it stayed, cause people love when they played 

To the North, it took a riverboat shuffle 

To the big cities, with lots of hustle and bustle 

To Chicago, and to the Apple too 

This was a scene, that our forefathers knew 

Go get your crew, I know they'll get into 

the jazz music... jazz music 

The music called jazz had the razzamatazz 

It had the flavor, and a lot of pizazz 

The big band beat was very neat and unique 

The swing was king, it made you tap your feet 

There was Benny and Duke and of course the Count Basie 

The melody was smooth and yes, very taste 

There was Hap, The Prez, and Lady Day and 

Dizzy Bird and Miles, they were all playin 

They brought it to the people of the foreign lands 

Back across the oceans and the desert sands 

Where it echoes in the distant sounds of drums 

And it rises with the sun on days begun 

This is the music, that we give tribute to 

They gave it to us, that's why we give it to you 

The jazz music... the jazz music 

The jazz music... UH. uh. uh.
