It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) Songtext
von Mel Tormé

It don′t mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah

It don′t mean a thing
All you got to do is sing
Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah


It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
Give that rhythm everything you've got
It don′t mean a thing if it ain′t got that swing
Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah

What good is melody, what good is music
If it ain't possessing something sweet?
If it ain′t the melody and ain't the music
There′s something new that makes the tune complete

They don't mean a thing if it ain′t got that swing
Oh, don't mean a thing, all you've got to do is sing

Don′t mean a thing if it ain′t got that swing
Doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah, doo-wah
