Saved a nickel and lost a dime And got me working overtime And maybe that's the reason I'm feeling dazed and confused Random access memory What happened to my MP3 Jazz, my rhythm & blues Well, I don't want weed and I don't need wine The music starts and I feel fine And that's the reason I'm inclined To live the life that I choose Now some folks out here talk and smile They think they hip, but don't know jazz Jazz, my rhythm & blues Blessings falling down on me Flowing just like poetry, yeah I'll be hoping some sweet day Love will carry us away Now ever since the world began A truthful woman, a truthful man You'd be fortunate if you can Win one more than you lose And something just occurred to me Too many people still ain't free Jazz, my rhythm & blues Yeah, jazz Jazz, my rhythm & blues Yeah, jazz, jazz Jazz, my rhythm & blues
