It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) [1990 Remaster]

What good is melody, what good is music

If it ain't possessin' something sweet?

Nah, it ain't the melody and it ain't the music

There's something else that makes this tune complete

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

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 everything you got

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

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

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

Nah, it makes no difference if it's sweet or hot

Just give that rhythm everything you got

Don't mean a thing, boy, if it ain't that a swing
