I heard you say
that tonight's the night
You say there's a party going on
I'm in the door
like an old 78 side
And I hear 'em out hitting on
a Coleman song
<Interlude>
My friend John with a mirror
and spoon
Got a belt and a mainline scene
A couple getting
off in the back room
Someone's collecting money
for the friend in need
Sounds like a good time,
a ball to me
Sounds like a place
I'd like to be
Theres a little crowd you're
gonna want to meet
Oh they got a thing going on
swing street
<Interlude>
Nice old man in the corner booth
Making time with Jive-time Stu
She makes her sting 'neath the
table blue
Says she's an actor
but she's hooking
as a sideline too
Oh sounds like a good time,
a ball to me
Sounds like a place
I'd like to be
Everybody rolls
when it's time to meet
Oh they got a thing going on
swing street
Got a good thing going down
swing street
You say there's
nothing but bums around here
Listen to the sound of the
cymbal so clear
<Interlude>
Cutting contest on the stand
Somebody's trying to blow
you away
What makes him swing harder
than you do
Oh better hit the woodshed for
ninety days
Oh sounds like a good time,
a ball to me
Sounds like a place
I'd like to be
Theres a little crowd you're
gonna want to meet
Oh they got a thing going on
swing street
Got a good thing going down
swing street
Got a good thing going down
swing street
<Interlude>
Got a thing going on
on swing street
Got a thing going on
Got a thing going on
on swing street
my niggas
just bust yo' tech for me
Everybody from every hood
bang yo' head
'til you break yo' motherfuckin
neck for me!
Just let me give
you real street shit
to rap in yo' shit with
We clap yo' seat
we whyle this heat
Keep bouncin up
and down these streets
So nod yo' head and
Break yo' neck nigga!
Break yo' neck nigga!
Break yo' neck nigga!
Bang yo' head until you start to
Break yo' neck nigga!
Break yo' neck nigga!
Break yo' neck nigga!
Break yo' neck!
