Sweet and Lowdown

Lyrics

[Chorus GIRLS] Grab a cab and go down To where the band is playing Where milk and honey flow down Where ev'ry one is saying: "Blow that sweet and low-down!" Busy as a beaver You'll dance until you totter You're sure to get the fever For nothing could be hotter Oh, that sweet and low-down! [JEANNIE, spoken] All right peoples, peoples listen up! Now today is a very sad occasion, 'cause tomorrow morning, our own Jimmy Winter is getting' married for the third time! [JIMMY, spoken] Forth time! Only this time I'm not marrying some cheap chorus girl! [Chorus GIRLS, spoken] Hey! [JIMMY, spoken] Oh sorry cheap chorus girls [Chorus GIRLS, spoken] It's okay, oh it's fine... etc [JIMMY, spoken] This timе I'm marrying a real lady! A respectablе lady! One who's never even been arrested! [Chorus GIRLS] (Cheer) [JIMMY] There's a cabaret in this city I can recommend to you Peps you up like electricity when the band is blowing blue They play nothing classic, oh no! Down there; They crave nothing else but the low-down there If you need a tonic and the need is chronic If you're in a crisis, my advice is Grab a cab and go down [Chorus GIRLS] Grab a cap and go down [JIMMY] To where the band is playin' [Chorus GIRLS] Where the band is playin' [JIMMY] Where milk and honey flow down Where ev'ry one is saying "Blow [Chorus GIRLS] Blow [JIMMY] That sweet and low-down!" [Chorus GIRLS] Low low down [JIMMY] Busy as a beaver [Chorus GIRLS] Busy as a beaver [JIMMY] You'll dance until you totter [Chorus GIRLS] Dance until you totter [JIMMY] You're sure to get the fever [JIMMY & Chorus GIRLS] For nothing could be hotter Oh [JIMMY] That sweet and low-down! Philosopher or deacon You simply have to weaken [JIMMY & Chorus GIRLS] Hear those shuffling feet You can't keep your seat [JIMMY] Professor [Chorus GIRLS & SOCIETY GUYS] Yeah [JIMMY] Start your beat! [Chorus GIRLS & SOCIETY GUYS] Come along, get in it love the syncopation! The minute they begin it You're shouting to the nation oh [JIMMY] That sweet and low-down [Chorus GIRLS & SOCIETY GUYS] Low low down [JIMMY] I said low down [Chorus GIRLS & SOCIETY GUYS] Low low down Low low down [JIMMY, Chorus GIRLS & SOCIETY GUYS] That low down
