We Can Swing Together

No one came to criticize
No one to complain
Just to pass a little bit of time
Play some human games

Some were smoking 'Roll your owns'
While others they had none
Everybody was holding hands
And singing this little song

We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night

Then when things were happening
Around about ten to four
There was a screeching of brakes
Dogs barking outside
And a hammering on the door

Then the voice of officialdom
Saying, "Open in the name of the law"
But we just kept on holding hands
And singing this song some more

We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night

Then they broke down all the doors
And kicked the windows in
They let their doggies off the leads
And they ransacked everything

They stood us all against the wall
Their faces split with grins
And then they linked each others' handcuffs
And they merrily began to sing

We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night

They took us to see the county judge
With a wig hat on his head
He heard our case with a smile on his face
And this is what he said

I'll have to send you all to jail
For doing this terrible thing
And as I walked down to the cells
I swear I heard him sing

We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night

We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night

We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
