Here are the original lyrics ( source: www.ml.islandnet.com/):

> VERSE: Everybody gets the blues now and then,
>    and don't know what to do.
> I've had it happen many, many times to me
>    and so have you.
> But those days have gone and passed.
> I found out what to do at last.
> When I feel all in, down and out,
> You will hear me shout:
>
> CHORUS: Oh, hello, Central; give me Doctor Jazz.
> He's got just what I need; I'll say he has.
> When the world goes wrong, and I got the blues,
> He's the man who makes me get out both my dancing shoes.
> The more I get, the more I want, it seems.
> I page old Doctor Jazz in all my dreams.
> When I'm trouble-bound and mixed,
> He's the guy that gets me fixed.
> Hello, Central; give me Doctor Jazz.
>
> Circa 1927
> Lyric by Walter Melrose, Music by Joseph "King" Oliver
