Got My Own Thing Now Lyrics

Got My Own Thing Now lyrics

When I was a lad, I was a little bit shy. 
Something came along and caught my eye. 
When I heard the jazz band strike up, 
I swear, I had my mind made up. 
Now I'm getting older 
Everything is in full swing. 
Now I'm getting bolder 
Man, I've got to do that thing. 
I used to walk along with the rest 
Now I've got something all my own 
Now you've got a little something new. 
 
Broke away, somehow. 
That's why I'm swinging it 
I've got my own thing now! 

Children put away your toys 
All your little children's games. 
Let the jazz band make some noise 
Step up ladies and watch out boys. 
'Mirror on the wall, 
who's the hot band in the hall?' 
Let everybody sing 
Get on out there and do your thing.
