I've been around so far it seems
Too bad the blues blew my schemes
Dynamite, such sweet surprise
In southern heat or northern skies

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so

Shadows cling where shutters close
Who can tell heaven knows
Why some can laugh and some can sing?
Stand in line or get on down and swing

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that, ain't that so

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that, ain't that so
Ain't that so

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that, ain't that so

Cross the street who's ringing bells?
Peeling walls of cheap hotels
Neon flare a sudden chill
And there you lie and time stands still

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that, ain't that so

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so

Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
Ain't that so
