SWING IT SISTER

from "Strictly Dynamite" 1934 film
Burton Lane (m) Harold Adamson (l) 1934

The Mills Brothers (film soundtrack)


When you hear a crazy beat,
Get up and get on your feet,
Swingin' sister,
Give it everything you've got!

When you've got a tune to rhyme,
just throw everything a sign,
Swingin' sister,
Make it sweet and make it hot!

Just let that rhythm
Get into your soul.
If you've got rhythm,
Get happy and lose control!

While you're feelin' mighty high,
Just let out and "hi-de-hi!".
Swingin' sister,
Give it everything you've got!
