[Chorus]
Hey, get rhythm
When you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
It only costs a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
[Verse 1]
A little shoeshine boy he never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bending low at the peoples' feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
Well, I asked him while he shinеd my shoes
How'd he keep from getting thе blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
He popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
[Chorus]
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
It only costs a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
[Verse 2]
Well, I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was going to 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-working that way"
He said, "I like it" with a big wide grin
Kept on a-popping and he said again
[Chorus]
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
It only costs a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
