Johnny's Jazz Grocery Lyrics

Hey, hey people, have you heard the news

There's a place to buy groceries and hear some blues

Down around the corner on Shrewsbury Street

You can feed your soul while you're buying your meat

It's Johnny's Jazz Grocery down on Shrewsbury Street

It doesn't matter if you're hip or straight

Cause the service is friendly and the prices are great

Two little aisles and a freezer case

And the pure sounds of jazz all over the place

It's Johnny's Jazz Grocery down on Shrewsbury Street

This ain't no ordinary mom and pop

It's the only place in town where you can bop while you shop

You can hear Prez and Bird and Dizz

While you're buying your crackers and your cheese whiz

They got lamb chops, ham hocks, cherry tomatoes

Coconuts and mangoes and sweet potatoes

Bee bop and swing and cool jazz too

At Johnny's you can pig out on humanity stew

It's Johnny's Jazz Grocery down on Shrewsbury Street

This ain't no ordinary mom and pop

It's the only place in town where you can bop while you shop

You can hear Prez and Bird and Dizz

While you're buying your crackers and your cheese whiz

Hey hey people have you heard the news

There's a place to buy groceries and hear some blues

Down around the corner on Shrewsbury Street

You can feed your soul while you're buying your meat

It's Johnny's Jazz Grocery down on Shrewsbury

Jazz Grocery down on Shrewsbury

Jazz Grocery down on Shrewsbury Street
