Listen and download here: Jackson Avenue [1] Jackson Avenue ©2003 by Marla Lewis When I was barely three Sittin’ on my momma’s knee I first heard Jazz and Blues On Jackson Avenue On stage a ten-piece band The Hot Dogs of Dixieland Zoot suits and shiny shoes On Jackson Avenue Snare drum snapped a beat Pretty soon, man, you couldn’t help it, you tapped your feet! Here come that saxophone! Clarinet and slide trombone String bass, piana too On Jackson Avenue! Them Saints came marchin’ in The Hot Dogs were sizzlin’! Wah-wah and toodle-oo On Jackson Avenue! (SOLO) Hear that solo swing! Look! Cornet man steps up to the mike and begins to sing! He smiles and winks at me And quick as 1-2-3 We’re scattin’ in harmony On Jackson Avenue Today I’m scattin’ still New York to Storyville Ever since my big debut On Jackson Avenue! I learned my point of view On Jackson Avenue!
