Lyrics Nina Simone

Nina Simone

It Don't Mean a Thing

Don't mean a thing, you can't swing

Dooa, doa doa, doa doa, doaa

Well, it don't mean a thing, all you gotta do is sing

Dooa, doa doa, doa doa, doaa

Makes no difference if it's sweet or hot

Give that rhythm everything you've got

Don't mean a thing, all you gotta do is swing

Dooa, doa doa, doaa

It don't mean a thing, if you ain't got that swing

Don't mean a thing, all you gotta do is sing

Makes no difference if it's sweet or hot

It don't mean a thing, no, it don't mean a thing

Don't mean a thing, if you ain't got that swing

Yeah, doa, oh, doa, oh doa, oh yeah

Don't mean a thing, gotta do is swing

Well, doa, oh doa, oh doa, doa doa

Makes no difference if it's sweet or hot

Give that rhythm everything you've got

Don't mean a thing if you can't swing

Don't mean a thing if you can't sing

Sing your song, all day long

All the time, right on time

Every day, every way

Makes no difference, sweet or hot

Give that song, all you got, sing it, sing it

Doa, doa, oh yeah, doa, alright, oh yeah

Sing the song, all day long

Doaa, oh yeah, doaa, oh yeah
