[Verse]
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 a tune complete

[Chorus]
Oh, it don't mean a thing
If it ain't got that swing
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
It don't mean a thing
All you got to do is sing
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah

[Bridge]
It makes no difference
If it's sweet or hot
Just give that rhythm
Everything you got

[Chorus]
Oh, it don't mean a thing
If it ain't got that swing
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
[Scatting]

[Bridge]
It makes no difference
If it's sweet or hot
Just give that rhythm
Everything you got

[Outro]
Oh, it don't mean a thing
Everybody's got to sing
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, way
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, way
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, way
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, way
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo wah, doo wah, doo wah
Doo wah, doo, doo wah, doo wah, ooh
