Hey get rhythm
when you get the blues
C'mon get rhythm
when you get the blues

Get a rock and roll
feeling in your bones
Get taps on your toes
and get gone
Get rhythm
when you get the blues

A little shoeshine boy
he never gets low down
But he's got the
dirtiest job in town
Bending low at the people's feet
on a windy corner
of a dirty street

Well I asked him
while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from
getting the blues
He grinned as he
raised his little head
He popped his shoeshine
rag and then he said

Get rhythm
when you get the blues
C'mon get rhythm
when you get the blues

A jumpy rhythm
makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all your troubles
from your worried mind

Get rhythm
when you get the blues
Get rhythm
when you get the blues
Come on, Get rhythm
when you get the blues

Get a rock and roll
feeling in your bones
Get taps on your toes
and get gone
Get rhythm
when you get the blues

Well I sat and I listened
to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was
gonna jump with joy

Slapped on the shoe
polish left and right
Took his shoeshine rag
and he held it tight

He stopped once
to wipe the sweat away
I said you mighty little boy
to be a working that way

He said I like it
with a big wide grin
And he kept on a popping
and he'd say it again

Get rhythm
when you get the blues
C'mon get rhythm
when you get the blues

Only cost a dime
just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars
worth of good for you

Get rhythm
when you get the blues
