Lyrics

  1. I just found a way to lose
    All my weary, weary blues
    No more I’ll sit and cry
    No more I’ll weep and sigh
    Got a jazz band all my own
    Now I never am alone
    When I play, folks all sway
    And everybody shouts, Hey

Chorus
Play that thing Wa Wa Wa
Make it sing Wa Wa Wa
Get a glass and an old Gazoo
You’ll soon learn how to do it, too
Wa Wa Wa, Wa Wa Wa
Simple as can be
When those blue blowers start to play
They just blow all your blues away
With their Wa Wa Wa
Wa Wa Wa, Wa Wa Wa

  1. I’m invited everywhere
    Party starts when I get there
    I chase away the blues
    My name just means good news
    Clap your hands and shake your feet
    Here’s a blue band hard to beat
    I just vow, they’re waiting now
    ‘Cause I hear them all say, Hey
