Lyrics

Give me a song that's robust Feeling the way I am Any old band'll go bust If it ain't got that jam When a body needs a body On the ballroom floor Then a body asks a body "What's a swing band for?" Oh baby, I don't want you To croon soft and mellow Let me warn you in advance, Sing me a swing song and let me dance Oh baby, I don't want Any moon, bright and yellow You can have your sweet romance Sing me a swing song and let me dance Mr. Trombone, play some corn I ain't carin' what notes Mr. Trumpet, grab a horn Brother, give me hot notes Oh baby, I don't want Any tune, on a cello Give the rhythm men a chance Sing me a swing song and let me dance instrumental interlude Let me warn you in advance, Sing me a swing song and let me dance You can have your sweet romance, just Sing me a swing song and let me dance Mr. Trombone, play some corn I ain't carin' what notes Mr. Trumpet, grab a horn Brother, give me hot notes Oh baby, I don't want Any tune, on a cello Give the rhythm men a chance Sing me a swing song and let me dance Ol' Chick Webb is beatin' it out Makes me feel like I want to shout All the boys are ready to prance, so Sing me a swing song and let me dance
