https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le8a7u1pANU
Start listening from 1´48´´

Come on babe, why don't we paint the town……..


And all that jazz
I'm gonna rouge my ……knees…………and roll my stockings down
And all that jazz
…start……….the car, I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is ……cold……..but the piano's hot
It's just a noisy hall, where there's a nightly brawl
And all that jazz
Skidoo
And all that jazz
Hotcha
Whoopee
And all that jazz
Slick your ……hair……..and wear your buckle shoes
And all that jazz blues
I hear that Father Dip is gonna blow the……blues……
And all that jazz
Hold on hon, we're gonna bunny-hug
I bought some …....aspirin........down at United Drug
In case you shake apart and want a brand new start
To do that jazz
Find a flask, we're playin' ........fast....... and loose
And all that jazz
Right up here is where I store the .....juice.......
And all that jazz
Come on babe, we're gonna brush the ........sky......
I betcha Lucky Lindy never flew so .....high.........
'Cause in the stratosphere, how could he lend an ear
To all that jazz?
Oh, you're gonna see your sheba shimmy-shake
And all that jazz
Oh, she's gonna shimmy 'til her garters break
And all that jazz
.........show............her where to park her girdle
Oh, her mother's blood'll curdle
If she'd .....hear............her baby's queer
For all that jazz
All that jazz
Come on babe......
