I got a frown you got a frown

All God's chillun got a frown on their face

Take no chance with that frown

A song and a dance turn it upside down

All God's chillun got rhythm all God's chillun got swing

Maybe haven't got money maybe haven't got shoes

All God's chillun got rhythm for to push away their blues

All God's chillun got trouble troubles don't mean a thing

When they start to go

The old troubles bound to go way

All God's chillun got swing

All God's children got swing

All God's chillun got swing

Swing
