I dig rhythm and melody
And I'm a sucker for a big parade
Like lots a sugar in my tea
And turnin' lemons into lemonade

So call me crazy but who cares?
It's just a part of my colorful style
And I love, love, love to make you laugh
And I live to see you smile

Down in the delta, we like our jazz
With a little bit of zydeco
Cook up my meals with pizazz
And let the spices simmer nice and slow

Nice to meet ya, glad you're here
And we're hopin' that you stay a while
'Cause we love, love, love to make you laugh
And live to see you smile

This little band from Dixieland
Can chase your blues away
The fireflies and moonlit nights
Are always on display, here I go

So what's your hurry? Stick around
I got a solo I can play for you
Grab a tree stump, settle down
Can always use another in our crew

Enjoy the music and company
Of a talented and witty reptile, that's me
Who love, love, loves to make you laugh
And lives to see you smile

I love, love, love to make you laugh
And I live to see you smile
