Come jazzers gather round,
jazz lovers from ev'ry town
I've got something that
I'd like to introduce to you,
it's new,
It's got a funny name
that's going to win it fame
with your kind attention
I will mention
its many charms to you.

They call it Jazzola
nobody knows its origination
Jazzola!
It's just a dance full of syncopation,
and if you crave a new sensation,
Come with me, you will see
strange sights from the land of harmony,
old folks and young folks cry for Jazzola!
It's like a tonic taken with each meal,
how good you feel,
my old Grand Dad heard the news
swapped his cane for dancing shoes,
the whole word's going crazy
'bout Jazzola!

Just ask for Jazzola
nobody knows its origination
Jazzola!
It's just a dance full of syncopation,
and if you crave a new sensation,
Come with me, you will see
strange sights from the land of harmony,
old folks and young folks cry for Jazzola!
It's like a tonic taken with each meal,
how good you feel,
Old men who are out of step
find Jazzola gives 'em pep
the whole word's going crazy
'bout Jazzola!

Just take your sweetie sweet
out for a jazzola treat
and she'll love you like she never,
never did before,
what's more,
no need of buying wine,
you'll have a much better time,
get those jazz musicians
joy physicians
to play it o'er and o'er.

They call it Jazzola
nobody knows its origination
Jazzola!
It's just a dance full of syncopation,
and if you crave a new sensation,
Come with me, you will see
strange sights from the land of harmony,
old folks and young folks cry for Jazzola!
It's like a tonic taken with each meal,
how good you feel,
my old Grand Dad heard the news
swapped his cane for dancing shoes,
the whole word's going crazy
'bout Jazzola!

Just ask for Jazzola
nobody knows its origination
Jazzola!
It's just a dance full of syncopation,
and if you crave a new sensation,
Come with me, you will see
strange sights from the land of harmony,
old folks and young folks cry for Jazzola!
It's like a tonic taken with each meal,
how good you feel,
Old men who are out of step
find Jazzola gives 'em pep
the whole word's going crazy
'bout Jazzola!
