Where the gin is cold
But the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall
Where there's a nightly brawl
And all that jazz!

And wear your buckle shoes
And all that jazz

Is gonna blow the blues

In case you shake apart
And want a brand new start
To do that-

*Is gonna blow the blues is going to play blues music

*bunny hug Thanks to reader Jim P., who writes "That actually refers to a dance popular in the 1920s called the Bunny Hug which apparently was meant to simulate rabbits having sex." I'd like to see that! Or maybe not...

NOTES
rouge my knees and roll my stockings down put pink makeup on the knees, which are exposed by the rolled down stockings. Prior to the 1920s, women's fashions covered the knees. Daring women called flappers began the fashion of showing them, which was considered super-sexy at the time.

Slick you hair and wear your buckle shoes also fashions of trend setters in the 1920s. Men and women used oil, cream and pomades to make their hair shiny and close to the head.

Father Dip Most likely Louis Armstrong - one of his many nicknames was "Sweet Papa Dip"

I bought some aspirin down at United Drug in anticipation of tomorrow's hangover

Lucky Lindy Pilot Charles Lindbergh, famous for making the first solo, nonstop, transatlantic flight from New York to Paris in 1927.

Sheba reference to the Queen of Sheba, from the Bible. Because of a 1920s movie by the same name, Sheba was used to mean a sexy woman.

garters elastic used to hold up stockings (what women wore before pantyhose)

girdle elastic underwear used to make women (or men) look thinner
