Jammin' Lyrics


Baby, I was just a young girl
When you came on the scene 10 years ago
I thought I was hip, I could deal with the trips
No matter how fast or slowI was like a moving violation
Give me a ticket and I'm ready to ride
Thought I was the queen of syncopation
You know you can't give the queen no bad adviceThought I knew it all, baby
But I didn't know it all, baby
Thought I knew it all, baby
But I didn't know it all, baby?Cause when you kissed my lips
When you kissed my lips
I was jammin'
Jammin' for the first timeJammin', jammin'
Jammin' for the first time
Jammin', jammin'
Jammin' for the first timeBaby, I was young, I was green
When you showed me the ropes 10 years ago
I thought I was cool, I could break all the rules

No matter how fast or slowI was like a moving violation
Give me a ticket and I'm ready to ride
Thought I was the queen of syncopation
You know you can't give the queen no bad adviceThought I knew it all, baby
But I didn't know it all, baby
Thought I knew it all, baby
But I didn't know it all, baby?Cause when you kissed my lips
When you kissed my lips
I was jammin'
Jammin' for the first timeJammin', jammin'
Jammin' for the first time
Jammin', jammin'
Jammin' for the first timeI was a girl from the streets
Dancin' to the beat
Of a different kind of drummer
Little Ms. Know-it-all, you don't know it allCaught up in the rhythm of sound
Living to get down
As the song became my lover
Attitude keeps your head up to the skyThen you kissed my lips and, ooh
I lost my coolLook at me I'm jammin'
And everything's happenin'
I'm feeling the bliss and the reason for this
Is the love in your kiss, baby
Jammin'Jammin', jammin'
Jammin' for the first time
Jammin', jammin'
Jammin' for the first timeI was like a moving violation
Give me a ticket, baby
Thought I was the queen of syncopation
You know you can't give the queen no bad adviceThought I knew it all, baby
But I didn't know it all, baby
Thought I knew it all, baby
But I didn't know it all, baby?Cause when you kissed my lips
And my backbone slipped
I was jammin'
Jammin' for the first timeThe square root of a positive groove
Times a happening melody equals a jam
Give some to the backNo
Ooh, baby
No
You got me movin' and I'm jammin' for the first timeNo
Ooh, baby
No
You got me movin' and I'm jammin' for the first timeI was like a moving violation
Give me a ticket, baby
Thought I was the queen of syncopation
You know you can't give the queen no bad adviceI was like a moving violation
Give me a ticket, baby
Thought I was the queen of syncopation
You know you can't give the queen no bad advice

Born Montgomery Bernard Alexander on June 6, 1944 in Kingston, Jamaica, Monty Alexander is a jazz pianist whose style is influenced by strong Caribbean and swing feeling. A musician of a great versatility, this piano virtuoso has covered wide range of musical genres in his career from jazz to reggae, playing with either small bands or an orchestra. "My goal is to uplift", says Alexander. “The piano, to me, is a vehicle for connecting to other human beings. I'm very open to all forms of music. I'm not a bebop musician, I'm not a calypso musician, I'm not a reggae musician.
