Hey! G et rhythm when you get the blues
C'mon g et rhythm when you get the blues
get a rock n roll feelin' in your bones
put taps on your toes and you get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
A Little shoeshine boy never gets low down
but he's got the dirtiest job in town
bendin' low at the peoples' feet
on the windy corner of the dirty street
well I asked him while he shined my shoes
how'd he keep from gettin' the blues
he grinned as he raised his little head
popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
G et rhythm when you get the blues
C'mon ge t rhythm when you get th e blues
a jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
it'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Get r hythm when you get the blues
C'mon get rhythm when you get t he blues
get a rock n roll feelin' in your bones
put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when y ou get the blues
W ell I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
and I thought I was gonna jump for joy
slapped on the shoe polish left and right
he took a shoeshine rag and he held it tight
he stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said you're a mighty little boy to be-a workin' that way
he said I like it with a big wide grin
kept on a poppin' and he said again
G et rhythm when you get the blues
C 'mon get rhythm when you get t he blues
it only costs a dime just a nickel a shoe
does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
