sweet and lowdown - george gershwin & ira gershwin lyrics 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]

[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
