Lyrics:Ira Gershwin Music:George Gershwin | |
Got a little rhythm, a rhythm, a rhythm | |
That pit-a-pats through my brain; | |
So darn persistent, | |
The day isn't distant | |
When it'll drive me insane. | |
Comes in the morning | |
Without any warning, | |
And hangs around me all day. | |
I'll have to sneak up to it | |
Someday, and speak up to it. | |
I hope it listens when I say: | |
Refrain: | |
Fascinating Rhythm, | |
You've got me on the go! | |
Fascinating Rhythm, | |
I'm all a-quiver. | |
When a mess you're making! | |
The neighbours want to know | |
Why I'm always shaking | |
Just like a flivver. | |
Each morning I get up with the sun - | |
Start a-hopping, | |
Never stopping - | |
To find at night no work has been done. | |
I know that | |
Once it didn't matter - | |
But now you're doing wrong; | |
When you start to patter | |
I'm so unhappy. | |
Won't you take a day off? | |
Decide to run along | |
Somewhere far away off - | |
And make it snappy! | |
Oh, how I long to be the man I used to be! | |
Fascinating rhythm, | |
On won't you stop picking on me? |

So darn persistent, | |
The day isn' t distant | |
When it' ll drive me insane. | |

Without any warning, | |
And hangs around me all day. | |
I' ll have to sneak up to it | |
Someday, and speak up to it. | |

Fascinating Rhythm, | |
You' ve got me on the go! | |
Fascinating Rhythm, | |
