What good is melody, what good is mu - sic
If it ain't possessin' something sweet?
It ain't the melody, it ain't the mu - sic --
There's something else that makes the tune complete.
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing --
Doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat.
It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing --
Doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat.
It makes no diff'rence if that rhythm'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 --
Doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat,
Doo-wat doo-wat, doo-wat doo-wat, doo-waaaa.
