[length: 03:02]
[00:51.62]When I was a kid about half past three
[01:08.33]My ma said “Daughter, come here to me”
[01:11.38]Said things may come, and things may go
[01:14.25]But this is one thing you ought to know…
[01:18.14]Oh ‘t ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[01:21.10]’T ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[01:24.09]’T ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[01:27.02]That’s what gets results
[01:28.98]’T ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it
[01:32.95]’T ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it
[01:35.82]’T ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it
[01:38.81]That’s what gets results
[01:39.82]You can try hard
[01:42.89]Don’t mean a thing
[01:45.77]Take it easy, greasy
[01:49.85]Then your jive will swing
[01:51.74]Oh ‘t ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it
[01:55.81]’T ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it
[01:57.85]’T ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[02:00.80]That’s what gets results
[02:03.88]You’ve learned your ABC’s
[02:11.86]You’ve learned your DFG’s
[02:14.88]But this is something you don’t learn in school
[02:18.84]So get your hip boots on
[02:23.88]And then you’ll carry on
[02:25.82]But remember if you’re tryin’ too hard
[02:29.96]It don’t mean a thing
[02:31.97]Take it easy
[02:33.31](Band members:
[02:34.55]’T ain’t what you bring it’s the way that you bring it
[02:35.85]’T ain’t what you swing it’s the way that you swing it
[02:38.13]’T ain’t what you sing)
[02:40.08]- It’s the way that you sing it
[02:41.04](That’s what gets results)
[02:43.09](Band members sing while Ella adlibs:
[02:45.02]’T ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[02:46.04]’T ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[02:49.08]’T ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it
[02:52.15]That’s what gets results
[02:54.13]Re-bop!)
