Its raining down sorrow
And nothing but bad news
You know Ive had it up to here
Living with these blues
But I wont let it get me down
Its not the only game in town
In my mind, Im goin to Swing Street
Im a dreamer on a rough road
And I need to hear the music once again
When theres nothing but bad news
Ive got a way to beat the blues
I close my eyes and I go to Swing Street
We can dance there, theres a chance there
Of finding a little romance there
You dont know who youll meet
When youre down on Swing Street
Lose your blues in a minute
Cop a groove and youre in it
Im tellin you once, Im tellin you twice
Better take my advice
If youre weepin and youre wailin
Ive got a cure to fix exactly what is ailin
Count to four and grab my hand
Say, Ill meet you by the band
You and I, were 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
Dont seem worth all the changes
Just reach out and take my hand
And Ill meet you by the band
You and I, were goin to Swing Street
Yes, you and I, were going to go
To Swing Street, yeah
