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.
Yes love, love, love, love, love is a swingin' thing
It's a swingin' thing
Makes you laugh, makes you cry
Makes you live, makes you die
'Cause love is such a swingin' thing
(over backing of "bop she bop bop bop"):
Take a look in the sky; I see 2 little birdies flyin' by
Don't wonder why, they have all the joys love can bring
'Cause love is a swingin' thing
Say you need my lips (come on, come on) come on
Say you want my heart (come on, come on) come on
Say you need my love (come on, come on, come on) come on
I may be young today, but tomorrow I will be grown
(over backing of "bop she bop bop bop"):
Some people say love, love ain't this, that, & nothin' I don't lie
There is no other
I don't need a wedding gown, I don't need a diamong ring
'Cause I dig love; it's such a swingin' thing; you tell 'em, girls
(instrumental)
(over backing of "bop she bop bop bop"):
Some people say love, love takes all of your new kissing in the head
Well, I think it's cute
No more, & I'll take a little chance
I'm gonna have a fling
'Cause I dig love; it's such a swingin' thing
