Spreadin' Rhythm Around - Teddy Wilson

Puttin' tempo in old Manhattan

Everybody is out high-hattin'

Spreadin' the rhythm around

Everywhere you go trumpets are blarin'

Drums and saxophones rip and tearin'

Everybody you meet is rarin'

Spreadin' the rhythm around

Up in Harlem in every flat they give it that zing

Which according to one and all is what they call swing

Those who can’t afford silk and satin

Dance with gigolos who are latin

Come from Yonkers, the Bronx and Staten

Spreadin' the rhythm around
