It's raining down sorrow
|
And nothing bad news
|
You know I've had it up to here living with these blues
|
But I won't let it get me down
|
It's not the only game in town
|
In my mind, I'm goin' to Swing Street
|
I'm a dreamer on a rough road
|
And I need to hear the music once again
|
When there's nothing but bad news,
|
I've got a way to beat the blues
|
|
I close my eyes, and I go to Swing Street
|
You can dance there, there's a chance there
|
Of finding a little romance there
|
You don't know who you'll meet
|
When you're down on Swing Street
|
Lose your blues in a minute
|
Cop a groove and you're in it
|
I'm tellin' you once, I'm tellin' you twice
|
Better take my advice
|
If you're weepin' and you're wailin'
|
I've got a cure to fix exactly what is ailin,
|
Count to four and grab my hand say I'll meet
|
You by the band
|
|
You and I, we're goin' to Swing Street
|
Give yourself to the rhythm
|
And every wrong is forgiven
|
You may even lose the bluest of blues
|
Get back on your feet
|
When your best friends turn to strangers
|
And one more workin' day don't seem worth
|
All the changes
|
Just reach out and take my hand and I'll meet
|
You by the band
|
You and I, we're goin' to Swing Street
|
Yes you and I, we're going to go to Swing Street
|
