Along the mountain pass, there is a patch of grass
Where the swingin' shepherd plays a tune
His sheep never stray, dancin' all day
Until they see the paling yellow moon

And then he leads his flock
And homeward they all rock
To the tune of the swingin' shepherd blues

This is something really extra special
A ditty we like to do just for you
It's the onliest, swinginest, grooviest
Thingy that we've ever done

And if you like it then before we are through
Then you ought to move along, groove along
And join this song and I don't have to repeat
It's swing, ah yes, now it's complete, wooh

Along the mountain pass, there is a patch of grass
Where the swingin' shepherd plays his tune
His sheep never stray, dancin' all day
Until they see the palin' yellow moon

And then he leads that flock
And homeward they all rock
To the tune of the swingin' shepherd blues, yeah

Take your time, take your time
I like the way you swing it
Come on, come on, come on
