Spreadin' Rhythm Around

Spreadin' Rhythm Around - Fats Waller

Music everywhere feet are pattin'

Puttin tempo in old Manhattan

Everybody is out high-hattin'

Spreadin' rhythm around

Everwhere you go trumpets blarin'

Drums and saxophones rippin' tearin'

Everybody you meet is rarin'

Spreadin' rhythm around

Up in Harlem in any flat

They give it that thing

Which accordin' to one and all

Is what they call swing

Those who can't afford silk and satin

Dance with gigolos who are Latin

Come from Yonkers The Bronx and Staten

Spreadin' rhythm around

Spreadin' around

Yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

Up in Harlem in any flat

They give it that thing

Which accordin' to one and all

Is what they call swing

Those who can't afford silk and satin

Dance with gigolos who are Latin

Come from Yonkers The Bronx and Staten

Spreadin' rhythm around

Spreadin' rhythm around
