Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
C'mon and get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' 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
Bendin' 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 gettin' 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 and get rhythm when you get the blues"
Yes, 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
C'mon and get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Get taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Well I sat down and listened to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
He slapped on the shoe polish left and right
He took his shoeshine rag and he held it tight
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said, "You 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'd say it again
"Get rhythm when you get the blues
C'mon and get rhythm when you get the blues"
It 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
