| No-one came to criticize, no-one to complain
 | 
| Just to pass a little bit of time, play some human games
 | 
| Some were smoking 'roll your owns', while others they had none
 | 
| Ev’rybody was holding hands, and singing this little song
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| Then when things were happening, around about ten to four
 | 
| There was a screeching of brakes, dogs barking outside, and a hammering on the
 | 
| door
 | 
| Then the voice of officialdom, saying 'Open in the name of the law'
 | 
| But we just kept on holding hands, and singing this song some more
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| Then they broke down all the doors, and kicked the windows in
 | 
| They let their doggies off the leads, and they ransacked everything
 | 
| They stood us all against the wall, their faces split with grins
 | 
| And then they linked each others' handcuffs and they merrily began to sing
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| They took us to see the County Judge, with a wig-hat on his head
 | 
| He heard our case with a smile on his face, and this is what he said:
 | 
| I’ll have to send you all to jail, for doing this terrible thing
 | 
| And as I walked down to the cells, I swear I heard him sing
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night
 | 
| We can swing together, 'cause we feel we’re doing it right
 | 
| We can swing together, we can swing all through the night |
