It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

And that's what gets results 


It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

And that's what gets results 


You can try hard don't mean a thing 

Take it easy and then your jive will swing 


It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

And that's what gets results 


I thought I was smart but I soon found out 

I didn't know what life was all about 

But then I learnt I must confess 

That life is like a game of chess 


It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

And that's what gets results 


You can try hard don't mean a thing 

Take it easy and then your jive will swing 


It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the way that you do it 

And that's what gets results 


It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the time that you do it 

And that's what gets results 


It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

It ain't what you do it's the place that you do it 

And that's what gets results
