lyrics

Lyrics:
I don’t want no modern rock-an’-roll;
I can’t dig that straight-eight beat at all.
Just give me,
Low Down Dirty Swing!

A swingin’ rhythm that’s got a ring.
It’s all that, but it don’t mean a thing.
Yeah, deal me some,
Low Down Dirty Swing!

It’s that singin’ sound from birds up in the sky;
big ol’ trucks that rumble by.
Java perkin’, now it’s workin’.
You’re so low down you’re high
and you’ve got to sing:

A rhythm that you just can’t ignore;
it makes you jump up and hit the floor.
Yeah, give me that,
Low Down Dirty Swing!
