Lyrics: (Separate Lyrics)
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing,
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
Everything you've got.
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing,
It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing.
