Nina Simone
"It Don't Mean A Thing"
Irving mills, duke ellington
What good is melody, what good is musicIf it ain't possessin' something sweetIt ain't the melody, it ain't the musicThere's something else that makes the tune complete
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swingIt don't mean a thing, all you got to do is singIt makes no diff'rence if it's sweet or hotJust give that rhythm ev'rything you gotIt don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
