A5                                             D         A5
You're a swell shing-a-linger, You can bop and birdland, too
        D                                                    C     A5
You're a swell shing-a-linger, You can rock and sock and birdland, too
         G                   E7             G            E7           A5
Well you look just like your mama,  But you sure swing a sweet little    shoe


[Verse 2]
A5
They can bop until Sunday, And they'll never, bop like you
         D
They can bop a month of Sundays, And they'll never bop a bit like you
                                                                    A5
Well you talk just like your daddy, But you do swing a sweet little shoe

So hey, let's do that shuffle thing, That we worked out to-ge-  ther
A5                                          G  G# A5
Come on girl and fan my flame, Shake a tail fea-  ther
A5                                              G   G# A5
Ladies in the neighborhood are, Talking about a scan-  dal
A5                            E7                     A5
All this funky fol-de-rol is  Just too hot to handle now[Instrumental]


[Verse 3]
A5
I got some brand new school shoes, And they are killing my feet
           D
I got some shiny, new school shoes, And man, these things are murder on my feet
                                                                               A5
They might look nice in Sunday school,  But they're no good for dancing in the street
