When the sun dips low and the lights are aglow
We gather 'round where the brass starts to blow
The drummer taps in, the bass takes a flight
We're ready to swing, we're ready tonight
Trumpets are blaring, the saxes in line
Trombones a-roaring with rhythm divine
Keys start to dance, a melody tight
Oh, we're swingin' through the night
We're swingin' through the night
With that big band sound so right
Every toe starts to tap, hearts skip a beat
When the music is hot, there's no defeat
The clarinets cry, the cymbals ignite
We're swingin' through the night
Swingin' through the night
The crowd's on their feet, no one can sit still
The energy builds, it's a pure, joyous thrill
From the old to the young, they clap with delight
It's the magic of music, the power of light
Horns take the lead, the piano's in stride
With fingers that glide and glisten with pride
The rhythm section grooves, so smooth and tight
Oh, we're swingin' through the night
We're swingin' through the night
With that big band sound so right
Every toe starts to tap, hearts skip a beat
When the music is hot, there's no defeat
The clarinets cry, the cymbals ignite
We're swingin' through the night
Swingin' through the night
Swingin' through the night
Let the brass erupt, let the saxes sing
Let the heartbeat thump as the dancers swing
It's a timeless tune, a soulful might
Where the past and the present unite
We're swingin' through the night
With that big band sound so right
Every toe starts to tap, hearts skip a beat
When the music is hot, there's no defeat
The clarinets cry, the cymbals ignite
We're swingin' through the night
Swingin' through the night
Swingin' through the night
When the final note fades and the crowd shouts for more
We'll play it again, let the rhythm encore
So here's to the sound, so full of delight
Keep swingin', keep swingin' through the night
