Lyrics

Thank you, haha

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, hahaha

In a mellow tone

From a saxophone

Take a mellow tone

And an old trombone

You play it sweet

You play it hot

You play with a beat

Give it everything you got

When you hear that mellow tone

From an old trombone

You will start to shout

Tell me what it's all about

Blow on and on

On and on and on and on

From an old trombone

In a mellow tone

One more, one more, one more

In a mellow, mellow tone

Come in a mellow tone

'Cause they play it sweet, so very sweet

They play it hot, so very hot

And they give it everything, thing they got

Wail on, wail, wail on

So blow, blow

We blow

We blow in a mellow, in a mellow tone

And we blow in a mellow tone

In a mellow tone
