Lyrics
Refrain
Send a lot of Jazz Bands over there
‘Twill make the boys feel glad
Send a troupe of Alexanders
With their Jazz Bands out to Flanders
And make them play a lot of snappy airs
The kind that make you dance
It isn’t just ammunition and food
You’ve got to keep them in a happy mood
So hurry up and send a troupe of Jazz Bands
Over to France
Performance
