(just the recognisable intro bit.
The guitar solo continues into the horn solo but basically 
repeats the same style switching between the major and minor 
pentatonic scales. I seem to remember a trip up to the Am 
12 position as well as some Robbie Robertson style pinched 
harmonics. Best you just play around with it and see what 
happens.)

So if you're gonna take a message 'cross the town
Maybe put it down somewhere over the other side
See it gets to Jimmy Jazz

Don't you bother me, not anymore
I can't take this tale, oh, no more
It's all around, Jimmy Jazz

J-a-zee zee J-a-zed zed
J-a-zed zed Jimmy Jazz
And then it sucks, he said, suck that

So go look all around, you can try your luck, brother
And see what you found
But I guarantee you it ain't your day your day, it ain't 

your day.

Chop Chop!
