Thelonious Monk - It Don't Mean A Thing (if It Ain't Got That Swing) lyrics

rate me

What good is melody, what good is music<br />

If it ain't possessin' something sweet<br />

It ain't the melody, it ain't the music<br />

There's something else that makes the tune complete<br />

<br />

It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing<br />

It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing<br />

It makes no difference if it's sweet or hot<br />

Just give that rhythm ev'rything you got<br />

<br />

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