Swingin' Machine

Swingin' Machine - Mose Allison

Written by：Mose Allison

Are you tired

Are you uninspired

If you are bored

You just can't afford

To miss out on the scene

When I unveil my little swinging machine

I worked years

Through sweat and tears

I made tests

Trying to find the best

Well you will know just what I mean

When I turn on my little swinging machine

Sometimes it gets a little hard to start

Sometimes I think its going to come apart

But when it's working just like a charm

It keeps me from going back to the farm

So look neat

Don't you drag your feet

Just turn loose

Have a drink of juice

You'll know just what I mean

When I turn on my little swinging machine

When my machine ain't working right

I walk the floor can't sleep at night

But when it really starts to percolate

I feel like I'm the master of my fate

Take a tip

Don't be over hip

Just reach out

See what it's all about

You know it's much more felt than seen

I'm talking about my little swinging machine
