I'm Playin' Music For A Certain Type

All The Classic Jazz Players All Sang And A Lot Of 'em Sang Blues.

I Been Getting Good Crowds. It Only Took 50 Years.

The Thing Of Playin' And Singin' Never Bothered Me.

I Do Very Few Standards. Hardly Any. Other People's Tunes That I Do Are Usually Obscure Tunes, For The Most Part, Although I Do A Couple Of Duke Ellington Tunes That Are Well Known.

I Never Thought I Was Playing Black Music. I Was Just Playing Music, The Stuff I Liked. I Sang Blues At Parties And Things When I Was A Kid.
