G Hey get rhythm when you get the blues C G Hey get rhythm when you get the blues Yes a jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine Itʼll shake all the trouble from your worried mind C D7 G Get rhythm when you get the blues G Little shoeshine boy never gets low down But heʼs got the dirtiest job in town Bending low at the peoplesʼ feet On the windy corner of the dirty street Well I asked him while he shined my shoes Howʼd he keep from getting the blues He grinned as he raised his little head Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said G Get rhythm when you get the blues C G Hey 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 C D7 G Get rhythm when you get the blues G 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 youʼre 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 G Get rhythm when you get the blues C G Hey get rhythm when you get the blues Get a rock n roll feeling in your bones Get taps on your toes and get gone C D7 G Get rhythm when you get the blues
