| It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) | ||
| Irving Mills, Duke Ellington | ||
|
What good is melody, what good is music If it ain't possessin' something sweet It ain't the melody, it ain't the music There's something else that makes the tune complete It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing It makes no diff'rence if it's sweet or hot Just give that rhythm ev'rything you got It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing |
