things are swingin'

things are swingin'

birds are singin'

and just what do you think those bells are doin' but ringin'?

'cause they have to ring to make this whole thing rhyme

and you know that things are swingin' all the time

if the news is what the blues is

then we'd better just practice up on our ones and twoses

'cause where love is

you can always find a rhyme

and where love is

things are swingin' all the time

it's as simple as

as a dimple

just remember that

you can find some brand new swingin' ideas

underneath your hat

so keep countin'

keep it mountin'

till you think it must be ponce de leon's fountain

yes

the fountain of youth

for those who know the score

means that things will keep on swingin' for evermore

like an ocean that's in motion

like the wind that's blowin' the boat right in to shore

it's the livin'est thing to live and breathe

and keep on laughin' up your sleeve

things are swingin' and they'll keep swingin' some more

yes

things are swingin' and they'll keep swingin' some more

let's keep on swingin' and swing right out the door
