'Tain't What You Do
Now when I was a kid about half past three,
My daddy said, "Son, come here to me";
Says, "Things may come and things may go,
But this is one thing you ought to know!"
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
That's what gets results!
Mama, mama!
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
That's what gets results!
You can try hard, don't mean a thing;
Take it easy, breezy, then your jive will swing!
Oh, it - 'tain't what you do, it's the place that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
That's what gets results!
My daddy said, "Son, come here to me";
Says, "Things may come and things may go,
But this is one thing you ought to know!"
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
That's what gets results!
Mama, mama!
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
That's what gets results!
You can try hard, don't mean a thing;
Take it easy, breezy, then your jive will swing!
Oh, it - 'tain't what you do, it's the place that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the time that you do it,
'Tain't what you do, it's the way that you do it,
That's what gets results!
