E Hey!GET RHYTHM when you get the blues A E C’mon get rhythm when you get the blues get a rock n roll feelin' in your bones put taps on your toes and you get gone A B7 E Get rhythm when you get the blues E A Little shoeshine boy never gets low down but he's got the dirtiest job in town bendin' low at the peoples' feet on the windy corner of the dirty street well I asked him while he shined my shoes how'd he keep from gettin' the blues he grinned as he raised his little head popped a shoeshine rag and then he said E GET RHYTHM when you get the blues A E C’mon get rhythm when you get the blues a jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine it'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind A B7 E Get rhythm when you get the blues Electric Guitar Solo: E GET RHYTHM when you get the blues A E C’mon get rhythm when you get the blues get a rock n roll feelin' in your bones put taps on your toes and get gone A B7 E Get rhythm when you get the blues E Well I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy and I thought I was gonna 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 workin' that way he said I like it with a big wide grin kept on a poppin' and he said again E GET RHYTHM when you get the blues A E C’mon get rhythm when you get the blues it only costs a dime just a nickel a shoe does a million dollars worth of good for you A B7 E Get rhythm when you get the blues
