Get Rhythm

[Verse 1]
Well, a little shoeshine boy never gets low down
But he got the dirtiest job in town
Bending low at the peoples' feet
On the windy corner of a dirty street
Once I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from getting the blues
Grinned as he raised that little head
Popped that rag and then he said

[Chorus]
You get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you gеt the blues
It only costs you a dime, 'bout a nickеl a shoe
Does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Well, I sat and I listened to that shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
He grabbed that rag and he held it tight
Slapped on to polish left and right
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said, "You're a mighty little boy to be a-working that way"
Said, "I like it," with a big wide grin
Kept on slapping and he said again

[Chorus]
You get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on, get rhythm when you get the blues
It only costs you a dime, 'bout a nickel a shoe
Does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
