Dixie Made Us Jazz Band Mad Lyrics

Dixieland, you've done it now! 

Hypnotized the world, and how! 

With
your raggy syncopation, 

You've captured every nation; 

Dixieland,
you've set them wild, 

But they are pleased; 

They're ravin',
they're cravin' 

For your melody! 



Dixie filled the whole
wide world with rag; 

Oh! Dixie gave the world a jazzy jag. 

Even
kids just two or three, 

How they love a jazzy melody! 

Keep
a-hooferin'! Keep a-hooferin'! 

On land and sea! 



Since
those old southern tunes are such a fad, 

Classic music seems to be in
bad; 

And pretty soon we're gonna hear Carus 

Try to sing the
Memphis Blues, 

'Cause Dixie made us jazz band mad! 



Dixie
filled the whole wide world with rag; 

Dixie gave the world a jazzy jag.


Why, take a look! Little kids! Just two or three! 

Oh, how they
love a jazzy melody! 

Keep a-hooferin'! Keep a hooferin'! 

On land
and sea! 



And since those southern tunes are such a fad, 

Classic music seems to be in bad; 

We'll see McCormack, in the hall,


Try to sing that Strutters Ball, 

Oh, Dixie made us jazz band
mad!
