[Spoken Intro]
Now, here is the thing that Duke was always on about
That thing called swing

[Verse]
Don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
Don't mean a thing, all you got to do is swing
Makes no difference if it's sweet or hot
Give that rhythm everything you've got
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
