Lisa and Bleeding Gums first play it in the hospital. When Bleeding Gums passes away, his cloud form plays the song one last time.
Lyrics[]
- Lift me won't you lift me
- Above the old routine
- Make it nice
- Play it clean
- Jazzman!
- When the Jazzman's testifyin',
- A faithless man believes.
- He can sing you into paradise,
- Or bring you to your knees.
- Jazzman, take my blues away,
- Make my pain the same as yours
- With every change you play.
- Jazzman, oh, Jazzman.
