about four hours into night time
town began to swing
swingin' on the ballroom dance floor
cats were swinging in the street
well light pole started swaying
buildings shook and shake
them cats were swingin' so hard
the ground began to break
and as the big band hit the last note
and them cats were rocking out
the roof gave way
and the house came down
and everyone scream and shout
Chorus:
swing out
you've got to swing that nasty sound
swing out you're shaking down the house
oh, you've got to swing baby
with that big city sound
2nd Verse:
well them cats were hopping around
in their cool zoot suits
and black and white hooves
and their girls
could really shake em' down
well, one walked up to me
with a wink of her eye
and a flash of her smile
she said, "hey baby"
"spend a little time with me"
"you look like the kind of guy"
"that could show me a real good time"
Repeat Chorus
