You Got To Love To Be Able

You Either Have It Or You Don't. You Play Your Horn Just Like You Sing A Song Or A Hymn. If It's In Your Heart, You Express Yourself In The Tune.

When I Was Young And Very Green, I Worte That Tune, Sister Kate, And Someone Said That's Fine, Let Me Publish It For You. I'll Give You Fifty Dollars. I Didn't Know Nothing About Papers, And Business, And I Sold It Outright.

What We Play Is Life.

If It Hadn't Been For Jazz, There Wouldn't Be No Rock And Roll.

Every Time I Close My Eyes Blowing That Trumpet Of Mine, I Look Right Into The Heart Of Good Old New Orleans. It Has Given Me Something To Live For.
