If Swing Goes, I Go Too

I'm all worried I'm upset
I just heard the worst news yet
Some old fogey wants to ration swing
Says your psyche won't survive

If you dance to that jump and jive
I can't help it if I shout and sing
They can take away my breakfast
They can take away my lunch

But there's just one thing
That they can't take
That's the rhythm of the swing band bunch
I like my music

And I like it high
If I try to shake it down
Then I just wanna die
What's this talk about waltzes

Taking the place of swing
I don't like waltzes
If they cancel my soap operas
I'll make it through

They can take away most anything
But if swing goes I go too
Some think rappin' is racy
It makes them lose their minds

Me, I'll stick with Basie
They can take away the polka
That dance I'll never do
They can take away most anything

Anything and everything
But if swing goes I go too
