Swing What You Got

I met a wise man on a mountaintop
And then I asked him
What's the secret, pop?
The people down below, we all wanna know
How to play the game of life before we got to go

He looked at me and said
I've pondered long
Listening to mother's natures song
And let me tell you, son
Life ain't just for fun
But if you want to have a ball
Here's how you get it done

You got to swing what
You got to save you soul
Swing what you got before it gets old
When troubles get around
Don't stop to frown
Just put on your dancing shoes
And dance step outta' town

The world is full of music, don't you know?
Not just what is just on your radio
So here's my answer, boy
For everlasting joy
Just swing what you got to save your soul

You got to, you got to
You got to, you got to
You got to, you got to
You got to, you got to
You got to, you got to
You got to
You got to scream!

Swing what you got to save your soul
Swing what got before it gets old
When troubles get around
Don't stop to frown
Just put on your dancing shoes
And dance step outta' town

The world is full of music, don't you know?
Not what is just on your radio
So every gal and gate
Come on, lets celebrate
And swing what you got to save your soul
Swing what you got to save your soul
