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
