"It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)" lyrics - DUKE ELLINGTON

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 that makes this song complete
(Bo dolled dolled do da...)

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
(Do Do a Do ap...)
Well it don't mean a thing all you got to do is sing

It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
Just give that rhythm ev-ry-thing you got YES

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing

It don't mean a thing
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing boy

(Ba ba doo dah doo')

I said it don't mean a thing and all you got to do is sing

(La la la)

Now it makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
Just give that rhythm ev-ry-thing you got OHH
It don't mean a thing boy, if it ain't got-a-that-a-swinga

(Ba boo ba doo')
