It Don`t Mean A Thing (If It Ain`t Got That Swing)

Irving Mills, Duke Ellington What good is melody, what good is music If it ain`t possessin` something sweet It ain`t the melody, it ain`t the music There`s something else that makes the tune complete 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 diff`rence if it`s sweet or hot Just give that rhythm ev`rything you got It don`t mean a thing, if it ain`t got that swing
