What good is melody?
What good is music?
If it ain´t possessing something sweet

It ain´t the melody
It ain´t the music
There´s something else that makes this song complete

It don´t mean a thing if it ain´t got that swing
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah)
Well it don´t mean a thing, all you got to do is sing
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah)

It makes no difference if it´s sweet or hot
Just take that rhythm, give it everything you got
It don´t mean a thing, all you got to do is sing

It don´t mean a thing if it ain´t got that swing
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah)
Well it don´t mean a thing all you got to do is sing
(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah)

It makes no difference if it´s sweet or hot
Just take that rhythm, give it everything you got
It don´t mean a thing, all you got to do is sing

(doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah, doo-ah...)
