Sing Me a Swing Song

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
