Swing Me a Swing Song - Various Artists/Billie Holiday/Ella Fitzgerald

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

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

Me Sing a swing song and let me dance
