T' Aint What You Do (It's the Way You Do It) Lyrics

When I was a kid about half past three
My daddy said, "Son, come here to me"
Says, "Things may come, and things may go
But this is one thing you ought to know..."
T'ain't what you do, it's the way 'hat you do it
T'ain't what you do, it's the way 'hat you do it
T'ain't what you do, it's the way 'hat you do it
That's what gets results (Mama, mama)
T'ain't what you do, it's the time that you do it
T'ain't what you do, it's the time that you do it

T'ain't what you do, it's the time that you do it
That's what gets results
Oh, you can try hard
Don't mean a thing (Don't mean a thing)
Take it easy, greasy
Then your jive will swing
Oh it ain't what you do, it's the place that you do it
T'ain't what you do, it's the place that you do it
T'ain't what you do, it's the place that you do it
That's what gets results
