It Don't Mean A Thing
What good is melody
What good is music
If it ain't possessing something sweet
It ain't the melody
It ain't the music
There's something else to makes the tune complete
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wah
It don't mean a thing, all you gotta do is sing
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wah
It makes no difference if it's sweet or hard
Just give that rhythm everything you got
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wah ah
Da Doo-boo-boo-da Doo-boo-boo-da
Doo-boo-boo-da Doo-boo-boo-da
Badabadaba dababadaba bi
Badabadabia
Bala-bala-balaba
Bala-ba-bala
On Trombone Mr.
Makes no difference if it's sweet or hard
You just give that rhythm everything you got
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab
Doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
What good is music
If it ain't possessing something sweet
It ain't the melody
It ain't the music
There's something else to makes the tune complete
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wah
It don't mean a thing, all you gotta do is sing
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wah
It makes no difference if it's sweet or hard
Just give that rhythm everything you got
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab
Doo-wab doo-wab doo-wab doo-wah ah
Da Doo-boo-boo-da Doo-boo-boo-da
Doo-boo-boo-da Doo-boo-boo-da
Badabadaba dababadaba bi
Badabadabia
Bala-bala-balaba
Bala-ba-bala
On Trombone Mr.
Makes no difference if it's sweet or hard
You just give that rhythm everything you got
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab
Doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
