[Verse 1 – Female] I got my lipstick, heels, and style, But honey, none of it makes me smile. The dance floor's set, the band’s in tune, But where are you beneath that moon? [Verse 1 – Male] I’ve got my suit and tie just right, I’m shining like a neon light. But swingin’ solo just ain't my thing, Unless you’re here to make me sing! [Chorus – Both or alternating] 'Cause ain’t love a groovy thing, When the rhythm starts to swing? You can jive, you can strut, But it don’t mean nothin’ without that what? (That spark! That zing!) Oh, ain’t love a groovy thing! [Verse 2 – Female] You snap your fingers, click your shoes, But baby, jazz is best in twos. No saxophone can soothe this ache, Unless it’s love that we both make. [Verse 2 – Male] I’ve sung the blues in smoky bars, Chased dreams beneath a thousand stars. But when you shimmy close to me, That’s the only harmony I need! [Bridge – Both, call and response style] (F) Love ain’t logic— (M) No it swings! (F) Not just roses— (M) But trumpet flings! (F) It’s a cocktail in the night— (M) A syncopated delight— (Both) And baby, when we dance, it feels so right! [Final Chorus – Both, big finish style] Yeah, ain’t love a groovy thing, When you’ve got that spark to cling? You can scat, you can shout, But it don’t mean nothin’ without that doubt! (That thrill! That zing!) Oh, ain’t love a groovy— Yes, it’s gotta be swingin’! 'Cause ain’t love a groovy… Groooovy thing!
