Lyrics
Da-de-ah, da-de-ah, seat yourself right down and play.
La-de-ah, la-de-ah, make that old piano sway:

CHORUS
Swing, Mister Charlie, oh swing, Mister Charlie,
I don’t care what tune, just make it a hot tune,
Play a bar or two of a theme that’s new,
Ev’ry note you hit is hotter than anything I’ve heard since swing began.
O-oh swing, Mister Charlie, oh swing, Mister Charlie,
No one can swing it like you do,
I can’t get enough of that swingable rhythm stuff,
Swing, Mister Charlie, swing.

Ha-de-ah, ha-de-ah, ‘bout your rhythm I’m a fool,
Wa-de-ah, wa-de-ah, bounce around that piano stool:

CHORUS
Swing, Mister Charlie, oh swing, Mister Charlie,
Swing on that keyboard and I’ll never be bored,
At a baby grand you’re a one man band,
When your hands caress those ivories, it’s a wonder they don’t burn the keys.
O-oh swing, Mister Charlie, oh swing, Mister Charlie,
No one can swing it like you do,
I can’t get enough of that swingable rhythm stuff,
Swing, Mister Charlie, swing.
