Way back, take a look, she would cook
She would blow, and they would dance, don't you know?
When they were stompin' at the Savoy
It was an uptown kind of show
Cool notes and melodies, harmonies
She sang the song of the universe
She can make a joyful noice up to heaven
From jazz, to swing, to beAnd call the angels down to the earth She kept the spirit alive
She spoke her mind
She's Ellamental to the art
For Bo, Duke, Dizzy, and Miles
She spoke her mind
She's Ellamental to the art
Too hot, until the dawn, she sang on
Bodies movin' back and forth to the rhythm When joints were jumpin' and jive was in
Ever since Ella first did her thing From jazz, to swing, to beShe kept the spirit alive
For Bo, Duke, Dizzy, and Miles
She spoke her mind Act like ya know, Oh!
Cause you know I be the funky bringer of the new style
Oh Ella was singin' just like no other singer
bacause I be the wild child
Was it the smooth tones that was so much like butter
Listenin' to hipElla made you move that aSensation for the people, inspiration for the sisters and the brothers
Smooth jazz tones for the midnight lovers
Savoy was the spot for shakin' on your rump and
Ella made it hoppin'
Got the joint jumpin', remembering you 'til the dawn Because Ella your memory goes on
She spoke her mind (yeah.and it just don't stop)
She's Ellamental to the art (the memory goes on and on.
cause it just don't stop)
She spoke her mind ((yeah.much love.)
She spoke her mind (yeah.jazz to the beShe's Ellamental to the art
