The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

What good is music,

what good is melody,

if it aint possessing something sweet.

It aint the music,

it aint the melody,

theres something else that makes that tune complete.

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

doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah

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

doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah

Makes no difference if its sweet or hard,

you just give that rhythm everything you got.

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

doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah

Makes no difference if its sweet or hard,

you just give that rhythm everything you got.

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

doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.
