Swing What You Got

I met a wise man on a mountaintop

And then I asked him

What's the secret, pop?

The people down below, we all wanna know

How to play the game of life before we got to go

He looked at me and said

I've pondered long

Listening to mother's natures song

And let me tell you, son

Life ain't just for fun

But if you want to have a ball

Here's how you get it done

You got to swing what

You got to save you soul

Swing what you got before it gets old

When troubles get around

Don't stop to frown

Just put on your dancing shoes

And dance step outta' town

The world is full of music, don't you know?

Not just what is just on your radio

So here's my answer, boy

For everlasting joy

Just swing what you got to save your soul

You got to, you got to

You got to, you got to

You got to, you got to

You got to, you got to

You got to, you got to

You got to

You got to scream!

Swing what you got to save your soul

Swing what got before it gets old

When troubles get around

Don't stop to frown

Just put on your dancing shoes

And dance step outta' town

The world is full of music, don't you know?

Not what is just on your radio

So every gal and gate

Come on, lets celebrate

And swing what you got to save your soul

Swing what you got to save your soul
